hi beth, in your last paragraph, it sounds like you answered your own
question! :-) and if you are more interested in this colt as a
riding/using type, then by all means geld him.
stallions can require a lot of work to manage, even the very best behaved
ones. there is a lot of work, time and effort involved in providing
stallion service, even with a small client base. tell your husband
that if he wants to keep this colt as a stallion, HE has to do all the
work! :-)
