I haven't looked this up at AMHA, but was told yesterday that if your stallion breeds more than 6 mares in a given year, he has to be DNA'd.
Older stallions, pre 199???? do not have to be DNA'd, however should they breed more than a certain number of mares in a given year then DNA is required.
It was "news to me" and for some people out there with older stallions it may be a cost they would not wish to have if there were an alternative.
The lady just told me in passing and I may not have the exact information, so if someone out there knows the correct information it might be good for all of us to be aware.
