When do you castrate your wethers?

[Sanhestar]

If you want them to use a packers you should also wait for Cieran's brother to mature far enough that he starts to smell. You will have in the long run statiscally less trouble with urinary calculi which will cost you more than having to band or surgically castrate.

The last castrated bucks (left two entire for almost three years) tended to be a bit more argumentative than the ones that were castrated younger. The also showed more head-butting/fighting amongst each other when the does were in heat and were higher ranked.
