Balls not Dropped yet.....

[Storm1974]

Our two boys were born in early June last year, but neither seem to have (as the title says) dropped their balls yet!

Is this normal?

Since it is both of them, are you sure they are boys?

Hi

Have you been able to express the penis for checks and cleaning?
We offer a second opinion sexing service on here if you wish to make use of it. The size of the 'treasure chest' can vary quite a lot.

Have you had a feel or just looked? Some are more obviously endowed than others.

Yes pretty sure, they weigh almost 1.2kgs each, but aren't 'overweight' and the breeder we got them from said they had been checked by a vet so were definitely both males! Also Bracken acts very boar like with all his ruble strutting to Bramble, and if Bramble was female, they would have babies by now!

No, haven't done that, just looked to see if the area was clean.

Have looked, not really felt and it does look as though they both have them, but not fully developed yet, which is strange considering their age and that they're both the same.

Perhaps post pictures for sexing?
If they are siblings maybe it could be a genetic issue?

Hi

Please take pictures so we can have a look.

Look at our sexing guide, so you know what we mean when asking for slit pictures. Please be aware that sows have a knob that can look like a penis tip for inexperienced people; the size of the knob can vary quite bit.

Yes I will try.

Yes I did look at the guide and I'm pretty sure they look exactly like the boar pics that are shown.

I will try to get some pics when we next give them a health check later on this week.
