How long to wait for vasectomized hob after op

[philkemp 50]

Ive had mixed veiws on this subject now wat would you guys say about the length of time to wait before putting your hoblet to a jill after the he's had the op? I bin told of one guy he put his to jills at 4 wk after op and every thing was fine then another guy said wait at least 3 month? Any info would be useful as mines due for his op on monday morning cheers Phil

My vet said 6 to 8 weeks so that is what I went with

[philkemp 50]

Did he not pup them up then?

Think 6/8 weeks sound's familiar

[philkemp 50]

Well thats a surprise was expecting longer wait than that but i will check we vet when he goes for op but any other info will be great

[philkemp 50]

my vet said 2 weeks would be fine that was a while ago my jills have only just come into season so i guess ill never know if he was right

Its always a gamble even if you wait three months till you use him on one jill and she doesn't have kits They dont always get the operation right

January mate and to be fair he's always kept ferrets,done the op loads of times with only 2 failed and has always said if the jills take he'd redo the op for free and wouldn't see me out of pocket plus passes on all the rabbiting jobs that come through his practice of which I've had 3 so

far.

When getting my Hob snipped, my Vet read up on it, and said also six to eight weeks, his six weeks will be up on the 31st of March, so just hoping the op has been a success,

On reading the posts on this subject I would say the above time appears to be the norm, don't know if I should put him in on the first date, or wait the extra two Weeks, I expect the six weeks would be okay,

Any advice?

xtra time to be safe wouldnt do any harm joe,only thing is leaving the jills in season longer.

Maybe test him on one first doubt the rest will keel over in 42 days time best too be safe. Only done one of my jills the other will have too wait until I know. Bad enough having one unwanted litter put down let alone two.

Just following sound advice and common sense really off the forum here
