Location: Wherever the Army sends my husband	I friend of mine has a similar situation. Bought colts from a local breeder. The one she planed to be a stud prospect now has a couple years of training and was going to stand this year when low and behold his sire isn't who he is supposed to be. They are having a hard time reaching an agreement on how to make things right.

Member Posts: 41	Not saying this is the case...it's much more likely that there was a mix-up somewhere along the way. But if you trust the seller and she's 100% confident that this is the right pedigree on this horse, chimerism could explain it. It's extremely rare, but not completely unheard of. The chimeric horse doesn't have to have an odd coat pattern or even show any outward signs -- sometimes if two embryos of the same color fuse, there's no hint of anything unusual. And sometimes it's just a small part of the body (i.e. the reproductive organs) that carry separate DNA. Anyway, a shot in the dark, but it has happened. https://aqha.com/daily/breeding/2016/breeding-archive/one-in-a-milli... https://aqha.com/daily/breeding/2016/breeding-archive/one-in-a-milli... http://genetics.thetech.org/ask/ask200

Even a chimera would reflect the correct parents, it's the foals of a chimera that would have the issue. So in this case the sire would have to be the chimera if that's the issue.

Married to a Louie Lover Posts: 3303	MeepMeep - 2017-02-25 1:58 PM Could her stud not be who she thinks he is? That would be my next question, is the mare's supposed sire still alive for testing/has he been verified already? Is another offspring available for testing?

I don't want to screw up! Posts: 3881 Location: North Dakota -> Colorado	MeepMeep - 2017-02-25 1:58 PM Could her stud not be who she thinks he is? Exactly what I was thinking right away, could it be that the stud of the mare is not the stud that the DNA says he should be?

Veteran Posts: 268	I bought a horse from a breeder who had to DNA the horse twice. They had 2 mares foal at the same time and the mares switched babies.... They were suprised when the original DNA came back wrong on the two babies....sure enough, they figured what happened and got everything straightened out. Mix ups happen.....it is figuring how it happened (where along the way) and correcting it.
