thanks for all the advice and support
i have been collecting sea water to spray on the wound and it has worked brilliantly. she is gradualy gaining strength i was very worried for the first few months as she was stabled full time not allowed to roll or walk for long and it affected her...
she is able to be ridden now i am currently hacking for 20 mins 3 times a week she is quite stiff through that shoulder still and is on cortaflex
her wound was very deep as i could put my hand into the hole in her neck right passed my wrist the vet who treated her was brill it took her 8 hours...
a 12 hh yearling colt from the neighbours field broke in and attacked her the colt didn't have a mark on him my mare is 15hh so he really must of gone mad

my vet has suggested a weeks course of a new hormone drug which has had sucess before however i think gelding him might be the best option
i have spoken with my vet and she says there is a 10% chance of it dropping but she wants to sediate him to see if she can feel the missing testicle if she can't i think you are right and i have him gelded trouble is he is a spot on specimen of his breed relly good pony other than his missing parcel
my welsh a stallion 4 years old in july has only one testicle will he drop the other one?
i bought him as a foal as a potential stallion so i am disappointed.
will i geld him
