Horse microchipped 3 times

[Casperlady]

Hi everyone im new to this forum but just wanted peoples advice. I brought my horse casper to the vet yesterday to have him microchipped. As the vet was checkin it two other numbers appeared as well as the chip number he was after putting in. Now i bought casper 3 years ago he had no passport with him and the only reason i was micrchipping him is to register with the sjai. My main question is does any one know how i can trace these numbers and should i be worried. The main problem is i am in ireland so does anyone know how to trace him. Please help or advise.

Yes there can if the numbers were registered and i am very surprised that wasnt picked up before
. When i got 6 yr old she had a chip already in her so the vet had to check she wasnt stolen ect . As they scan before they put a chip in them usually . But luckly she wasnt stolen ..

The vet will contact pet id with the chips nubers and they will tell them if they been registered or not . If there not then the vet shall register the horse in your name .
