Yes you can call your BLM office and they have a little book you can get.

if i figure out his registration number, is there some way to find out more about him? i know nothing at all about his past.

it's kind of ugly, right there on their neck.....

I think once you get his registration number you can take that to the BLM and they can tell you the area he was captured and when he was adopted.

It adds character and the blm needs something they can read without being real close to the horse.

i didn't get him because i wanted a pretty horse, i got him because he needed a good home and someone who would spend time with him. besides, i think the brand adds character.

Anybody ever hear of addition brands on other areas of the horses body, by BLM and what they might mean?
