[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9299"] The biggest concern with penile warts is the difficulty the bull will have with breeding. If the wart is close to the opening it will hurt the bull during the physical act of breeding and he will not mount frequently if at all. A bull like this should never be passed by a vet. The vet can cut the wart off if the position is right. I have had the vet cut a couple off over the years and these bulls went on to breed fine. I had one that was inoperable, tangled with the urethra. He was sold for slaughter no questions asked. A BSE or semen test is designed to eliminate obvious problems with bulls and a rigid but fair standard should be maintained. It doesn't help your reputation if a bull won't breed, anyone with a valid garantee is concerned with bulls that don't breed because they have to be replaced.
