Chipping ferts is getting much more common, their thick scruff can be a nuisance but even so they barely notice.

 

With your new v-hob, he's not proven. Every vasectomy isn't guarenteed, regardless of if the same vet had a proven result with a previous hob. Not the straightest path, but might be worth hiring a proven v-hob on your jills for now, and you could see if any breeder would test your hob out 8 weeks post-op as it would help tell if the op was successful, the breeder would get a jill or two brought out of season (they may well come back into season later on so they could still get a litter from them) and it would save you from an unsuccessful v-op and having all your jills pregnant.

 

Hope all goes well anyway. Atb.
