is the testicle of a pig monórquido functional?
He/she wanted to know if it is functional the testicle housed in abdominal cavity of a pig of a year of age.
Se could know looking at the testosterona levels in sangre?
Se he/she understands that the animal is castrated, and my interest is to know if the testicle housed in abdomen is functional, to carry out the surgery or not.
Muchas thanks to all ahead of time. A greeting.

Mr. Quintans:
Si the pig vasectomizado is, he no longer has to worry about anything. But if it is castrated and semen, the best thing ejaculates it is to analyze this. It is the easiest thing.

Sr.Albert:Creo not to have focused my question very well, because the interest that I have is the knowledge if that testicle is functional at hormonal level, to avoid the flavor to urine of the meat if you proceeds to its slaughter, and not so much this way, if he/she ejaculates or if there is sperm in its ejaculated.
Gracias for its answer.

I count You that in my farm and in the slaughterhouse we have had the experience, and the truth I recommend you that you practice him the surgery, because the flavor of the meat is similar to that of a pig with both testicles, because the testicle housed in the abdomen of the pig has the same functionality at hormonal level. In my case, once they rejected me a pig for that reason.

Hello to all. I will respond you with total stability to the topic, because my work is in fact that: to castrate females and males. To the females I take out him the ovaries, and to the males the testicles, and those that have the testicle inside the abdomen ciclanes are called in my earth, and they end up leaving pregnant to the females, even more than the other ones. And on the scent and flavor, I tell you that also enough more than the other ones. Besides ciclanes they are called rencollos, and they are a little more difficult of castrating that the females, and there are more hemorrhage risks, but without any problem. He/she is made a cut on the abdomen, and you the sack with the index finger. Although little bits cases are usually given, a very low percentage in comparison with the other ones, I usually castrate about 100 a year, of the normal thousands.

good afternoon. Definitively you have to carry out the operation to castrate this pig, since the hormonal levels are same and your product will be rejected. And him with respect to the physiology, this animal is not fertile for what comments the professional castrador. Remember the reproductive physiology of the testicle.

Miguel Angel: he/she forgives that it contradicts you, but what you comment that the pig that has a testicle inside the belly is not fertile, is completely uncertain, it is flatly certain, it is FERTILE, not only checked by me but for many cattlemen that I know, and I arrive to many exploitations to fix enough of them. Have you checked truly for same tí that it is not fertile or have you read it??
