So my Shetland colts are going in this Thursday to be gelded :( its something that I hadn't planned but now I need to move them to a livery yard so it is the only option, and in this situation I think it is best for them.

As they are so small they have to be done under GA, I'm just worried about it so needing some HHO vibes :(

I hope for their sake that I'm doing the right thing.
 
Some vets do them under GA, others just sedation...If the vet is worth his salt and there are no underlying issues with your colts, all will be fine...chin up and be glad you're not a colt :)
 
Try not to worry. My mini Shetland colt had to go in to be done under GA after the vet that came out said he was too small to do at home when she examined him. He was fine, just glad to get home again.
