QuestionWe have a beautiful six month old pinto colt and so far there is no sign of his testicles. I have been told that in a male mini they may not descend until he is anywhere from 1-2 years of age, particularly if he is not around mares. That seems rather strange. Is that accurate? What can you tell me about the subject.
AnswerHi Maureen-
Thanks for the question. You have been told correctly per my research. For some reason, minis sometimes drop later, particularly the smaller minis. I had a 28" stallion who did not fully descend both until he was nearly 2. Hope this helps. Best, Toni
