Ms Bling Bling Sleeze Kitty Posts: 20904 Location: LouLouVille, OK	Sitting here filling out registration papers, and I was wondering ... With AI they require DNA testing. Has anyone ever had a foal come back something other then the sire they paid for?

Take a Picture Posts: 12838	It is not very common however it does happen. The stallion owner is responsible but you are kind of at their mercy. I know someone who took a couple of mares to the facitlity where the stallion was standing. He was told to come pick the mares up as they had gone out of heat and had not been bred. He picked them up and paid the vet bill for checking the mares. He brought the mares home and had some kind of emergency that caused him to be away from home. The guy he had feeding let his yearling stallion out with the mares. The next spring one foals. He sent in the DNA and it wasn't his young stallion. He sent in the DNA again and not his horse. He asked what it would take to check the stallion that he had hauled the mares to. Bam, he was the sire. The stallion owner refused to add the mare to the breeder' s report. AQHA really could not do anything about it. Another time someone bred a mare to one of the top roping horses in rodeo. The foal's DNA did on match the sire. Not sure what the sire actully was but the stallion owner did not want to take responsibility for the mix up. I think they finally did offer another breeding.

That would totally suck to get that far and not be able to paper them at no fault of your own...

I bred my mare last year with AI, and sent in the DNA test a few weeks ago. I would be so upset if I bred to a stallion, got the wrong semen and the stallion owner not making it right.
