[QUOTE="Rafter S, post: 1151379, member: 21194"] As others said, the county clerk's office handles brand registration in Texas. There is a small fee, I don't remember how much but I don't think it's over about $20. They are up for renewal in every calendar year that ends in 1, so if you get a brand now it will be good until 2021, and will need to be renewed every ten years after that. If at any point you fail to renew it it's available for someone else to use. And if you have cattle in more than one county you need to register your brand in each county. I heard of a situation where someone had cattle in a county where his brand wasn't registered, so his neighbor registered his brand, cut the fence to let the cows onto his place, and tried to claim them as his. The rightful owner eventually got them back, but it was a hassle I'm sure he would rather have done without. You can go to this page of the Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association for links to more information on branding and other livestock laws: [url]http://www.tscra.org/theft-law/livestock-laws.html#.U7_XmE0o4yd[/url] [/QUOTE]
