Hi

What age can you have a ram lamb done to use as teaser next yr?

[Hillview Farm]

I'm pretty sure once they have developed after a few months they can be done (I may be wrong)

You can have a lamb castrated by the vet at any age so I would think once there male parts are big enough but you need to plan ahead because they need a few months away from ewes as they can still have sperm on board!

I usually do them in the new year when it's cold enough to ensure that there is little risk of fly problems and I have the time

Once they are done I let them rest for a few months then put them with a few cull ewes in late summer so that they can get rid of any live ammunition

I am going to get a few more done this year if anyone wants one? Wool shedding so easy maintenance

At least 6 months according to my vets - they need to have properly matured before the Op.
