Which is why I often geld before selling... or we have situations where a mediocre stallion is allowed to be shown and throw fits in public and looks terrible because he spends every spring pacing his stall because he is not getting mares... Until finally his owner decided maybe she will geld him. I sell very few stallions because I feel that many breeders are not very particular in who or what they breed. Anyone who pays the fee gets a breeding...
That is why if I have a yearling stallion they quickly become a yearling gelding unless it is one I personally plan to show and stand as a stallion... That said if it becomes an issue... it can very easily become a gelding. The colt I have that I plan to leave a stallion until further notice is a dun colt with four matching white socks and chrome on the face... his sire and dam are both NRHA money earners and both are still being shown. Here he is tracking a dog in the pasture... He is at that ugly yearling stage.... He is in the Incentive Fund....
Here is his pedigree....
