What is a freezemark on horse?

A "freezemark" is not a standard term used in the horse industry. It's possible you're thinking of a freeze brand, which is a method of marking horses using a branding iron that has been chilled with liquid nitrogen.

Here's how freeze branding works:

* The Process: A branding iron is cooled to extremely low temperatures using liquid nitrogen. The cold iron is then pressed onto the horse's skin, causing a localized freezing injury.

* The Result: The frozen tissue eventually dies, leaving a permanent white or gray mark. This mark is usually less noticeable than a hot brand, and it's considered less painful for the horse.

* Purpose: Freeze brands are used for identification purposes, often for horses involved in racing, breeding, or other activities where ownership or lineage needs to be tracked.

It's important to note that freeze branding should only be performed by experienced professionals who are qualified to administer the procedure safely and humanely.
