Calves must be castrated as young as practically possible, and pain control is required when castrating bulls older than six months of age. The requirement to use pain control in older calves was based on research demonstrating its effectiveness in feedlot bulls.

Sheep and goat breeders wait until at least two months to castrate because it gives the urinary tract more time to mature. This is especially important for kids that will be pets or weed eaters, as well as fiber wethers because those animals will hopefully live long lives.

A gelding is a castrated horse or other equine, such as a donkey or a mule. Castration, as well as the elimination of hormonally-driven behavior associated with a stallion, allows a male horse to be calmer and better-behaved, making the animal quieter, gentler and potentially more suitable as an everyday working animal.

Most pig producers castrated their pigs between day four and 14 of age. If a producer waits longer than 14 days, AVMA recommends that pigs be castrated at least five days before weaning.
