Reverse Vasectomy on Horse - Honestly!!!

Could'nt do that with Ralph, the Foxes got his bits

If this can be done safely & with a degree of certainty it would work I can see the technique being used on horses like Shutterfly & other quality horses who perform at the highest levels but were gelded at an early age.

............................ Just think of the market for horses sired by Shutterfly ?
 
i just hope it doesnt lead to even more indiscriminate breeding.

could be good could be bad.. but i think if a horse has been gelded in the first place its usually for a reason ie poor conformation etc and wasnt really stallion material. but of course theres always some horses that would make stallion material that have been gelded.

not referring to endangered species of course
 
Urm, I think people are getting confused between gelding and getting a vasectomy. Gelding the testicles are completely removed, gone, vamoosh... you can't reverse that. A vasectomy is where the tubes are cut or tied so all the 'bits' are still there, just not functioning. I would think that this isn't really done on your everyday horse because its high risk and extremely expensive and if you want to keep it a stallion then you do. When you're talking about endangered species then keeping good genes within the gene-pool can surely only be a good thing. Here's hoping he has some new babies next year

Trouble is AFAIK if you do a vasectomy all you are doing is preventing the sperm from being released so instead of a "manageable" gelding with little or no interest in mares you will still have a stallion's nature and urges, but firing blanks.
