Time:
Continental Breakfast 9 a.m.
Geldings 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. ( will
go longer if there are more animals to geld.)
The purpose of this clinic is to bring
the animals here and lower the cost of gelding for everyone. Last year
seemed to be a success, no reports of any issues.
I stole the idea of doing the Gelding
Clinic from Petco. As many know they offer their shot clinics for
dogs. It costs less because the vet is there to do just the one thing.
The animals come to them and therefore it takes less time. This allows
us to pass the savings on to you. For me personally it was costing
more than I wanted to spend for gelding a fiber male. Fiber males have
a purpose in our industry. In fact they are the core of our industry.
However, as their resale value is not extremely high many find it hard to
justify the expense. This clinic keeps the cost down and makes it
easier to geld those who will not be used as studs. This also helps to
keep the fineness longer as the testosterone will not impact the fiber as it
would if they are left intact. Gelding also helps keep the peace among
the males as they will not have the same drives as they do when left intact.
This also helps the industry by helping to insure only the best males are
available for breeding.
To register
