But...Denise, you reside in California!
Unless (deary me!) you plan on taking Quinn to auction for sale, (or
worse), you DO not need a Brand Inspection in California. Registration
papers, bill of sale, all would be very handy to prove proof of ownership if
it was disputed.
For travel beyond state lines, current Health + Coggins would be apply for
entering another state & re-entering Calif.

ex-California resident

if you don't have a brand, do they brand them at the inspection station.
quinn has a microchip. do all the stations have scanners? what happens
if you refuse to brand? do they throw you in jail?
Nope. They don't make you brand, they don't throw you in jail. The
inspector comes to your place, gives you appropriate travelling papers
(don't forget your vet's health certificate). If you get stopped and you
have these papers, you WILL pass go. If not, well, depends on the state.
Some states (my inspector informed me) will take your horse till you get the
inspection,and I'm not sure what else, and they will charge you a hefty
fine!
