Okay so another Q (or 4)regarding my 10 month old colt.
How long between first noticing a testicle did your colts fully drop?
I first felt one (right side) a few weeks back. Checked daily (by feeling) and after a week I felt two! Yes! called the vet and booked him in for the following week. A few days before the vet was due I could only feel one again, and just hoped it would come back down for the vet but it didn’t. Vet said he can sedate and see if it comes down but if it hasn’t then I’ve paid for sedation that was pointless so said to book him in for a months time and try again.the Vet came last week and this week I can feel two again! It seems the left is actually now sitting lower than the right which has moved up abit?
Do they usually move up and down like a yo-yo?? I thought they just moved into the sack and that was it! I’ve only had geldings and mares so this is new to me 😂
And as long as two can be felt then the vet can remove? Vet is booked in for 15th April. I’m just impatient and want them off as soon as! he’s so big already (measured 14.3) I’m worried when the “stallion†behaviour will kick in.
