What do I need to read horse temperatures with EquiTrace?

To read temperatures with EquiTrace you need an EquiTrace subscription, a Bluetooth-enabled microchip scanner, that is capable of reading temperature microchips.

You will also need a BioThermo® Microchip implanted in your horse for an accurate reading.

What type of scanner do I need to scan temperatures?


Scanners that can read these microchips include those sold under the names: Global Pocket Reader Plus (GPR+)®, Universal Worldscan Reader Plus (UWSR+)®, AFX-110® and others.


BioThermo® Microchips which measure body temperature are now commonly available in Europe, UK, Ireland, and the USA.


You can purchase a scanner and subscription from EquiTrace but EquiTrace are not currently providing BioThermo® microchips.
