Guest norseman Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 i would like to know do many of you work castrated hobs? got me thinking, does this not take away the aggressive edge, size and strength that people look for in a hob? i recently got a hob kit a few weeks back and hes already the size of my full grown jill, (the kits about 10 weeks) a mate told me that i need to keep an eye on them as he may get too big and rough for the jill, obviously i would split them up if it got too rough, but that got me thinking about getting the hob castrated, but i dont know if i want to lose that aggressive streak in him, so if any of you have castrated hobs or intact hobs and/or worked both in the past, it would be nice to hear your views on the subject, any pro's and con's ect... cheers guys atb john.

Guest norseman Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 cheers for that pie-eater, thats what i was kind of thinking, if a hob's got the horn he aint thinking about the rabbit. Quote Link to post
