Freeze Branding for Horses & Cattle Experienced, professional service by Todd Alexander. Serving Ellis County and North Central Texas |
| WHAT IS FREEZE BRANDING? The process is quick, permanent and affordable. A cold iron (cooled with liquid nitrogen) is used to kill the cells that produce color pigment. The result of the brand will be white hair growth where the iron was placed. Lighter colored horses (palominos and greys) can also be freeze branded by placing the iron on the horse for longer amounts of time. This will result in a hairless brand, with appearance similar to a fire brand but much cleaner. PHOTOS OF THE PROCESS WHY SHOULD I FREEZE BRAND MY STOCK? An estimated 40,000 horses are stolen each year in the United States. Permanent brands on livestock deter thieves. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? Branding prices for horses and cattle vary, based on the quantity and number of brands applied. WHAT IF I WANT A PERSONALIZED BRAND? I carry 2.5-inch letters and numbers along with circles, rafters, bars, rockers, etc. You can also order personalized brands, which run close to $100. DO YOU WORK AT SPECIAL EVENTS? Yes, I can set up for branding at ropings, rodeos and other occasions. Group discounts may be offered. |
