I just bought this guy from auction and he has only been color tested. So why would testing be turned off?

They may have liked his color and was thinking of breeding him. If he gets spayed accidentally it costs to bring him back to stud.

They probably figured he'd fail BA, so turned off tested so they didn't geld him accidentally

I have a few horses with testing turned off (all outside bred horses) because I had a really bad run over a few months where I was actively buying horses to add to my lines and they were altered when I threw my foals in the same barns and used the bulk testing to test them all.

Now I rarely buy outside horses and turn the testing off on the ones I buy that I really like.

Homebred horses on the other hand get all the testing and never get it turned off

I don't buy outside horses for breeding purposes unless they have been tested and meet my criteria anymore because I know how you feel. I used to buy mares and stuff, but they kept failing SBA, so I've stopped buying for the most part unless it's foundations I'm looking for.
