So, we did our first ever processing today and one of the bucks in one of the litters had two penises! Now, I’ve heard of hypospadia/split penis, but this was not one penis that was split, it was two completely separate ones. Can a split be this bad it makes two? 😂 or is this something else entirely, and what? And why? LOL. Sorry, no photos because my husband processed him and told me after the fact.
 
Hmm.. when I search I’m not seeing that. I see the two skinny sides of the split, but you see the connection inside snd it’s still one whole penis with a split in it. But this one I’m told was two COMPLETELY separate ones, not together. So I guess either just an extremely severe one that went through both sides, or another weird anomaly.
Needless to say, it would not be rebred to continue in a line. And I’ve read of the sire is normal, it must have came from the does line.

My last dispatch I had a buck with two penises. I didn't even know it was a thing before that butcher.

Wellllll..... that would depend as I've read it may be a recessive gene, in which case an apparently normal buck could still be carrying it. The doe however could have either one or two copies of the gene.

Thanks for the info! I don’t understand the whole genetic thing all the time, so I honestly had no idea!
