Ron Weasley 83 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Before I start, with the greatest respect, I'd appreciate responses just from those that actually have an idea, not novices shouting "TAKE HIM TO A VET". I noticed today that my vasectomised hob has one particularly large teste. To be completely honest, I didn't check him over yesterday, just fed him and left him alone, but I didn't notice it the day before. He's currently housed on his own, but has been bringing my jills out of season with no difficulties over the past couple of months. Any ideas? Thanks, Sam Quote Link to post
The one 8,484 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 How old is he? how long has he been snipped? I think it is a vet job mate as i reckon it will be testicular cancer heard of a few older snipped hob's getting it Quote Link to post
CarraghsGem 92 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 this time it sounds like a vet job, put it this way what would you do if it was your balls on the line? Quote Link to post
ferret100 47 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 When was your hob vasectomised? If recently the swelling may well be a haematoma, which will require vet attention. Any abnormal swelling to testicals really should be checked by a vet. 2 Quote Link to post
Ron Weasley 83 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 He's been snipped for a couple of years. He seems fine in himself. I'll get him off to the vet asap. Quote Link to post

Ron my vasectomised hob had one teste swell , it was testicular cancer, he was castrated , which i thought was a small price to pay for the service he provided Quote Link to post

Jamie m 668 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Would a castrated vesectamised hob still do the do ? Quote Link to post
Ron Weasley 83 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 No, once he's castrated, he's no longer vasectomised! I'd have to get another...and it's looking increasingly likely! Quote Link to post
