I get a lot of AGA sire colts. Do you always geld them? Here's an example.

This boy is AGA sire, but he's also AGA my current 3rd gen White4 stud, but he's got a lot of nifty genes that my current W4 stud doesn't have.

Would you keep him intact or geld him?

I would geld. I have some very few AGA that I have kept. But I only keep those that I know are marginally better. Like my only homozygous KP stud, who is A papered by a B papered stud. Or if I comparison test, and the colt is AGA sire and another stud that is superior to that sire.

Yep I do the same as Maribo, if I don't have a superior son and the AGA son is at least slightly better I'll use him. Assuming yeh colour I want or no others for that generation etc
