I just saw my second Jack with what appears to be a nipple on either side of his sheath.

Owner asked if I had ever seen before and I had, but have no idea what or why.

Any info ?

I am not sure why, but it is VERY common to see!

I had a bull like that once and asked a experienced cattle rancher about it, and he said he just has more decorations LOL I know that no help....just always makes me laugh when i think about it.

I have one like that also. He is 16 months old and does not appear to have dropped yet either. It sounds like the exta equipment may be fairly commom. I am having our vet look at him next week and will tell you what she says about it.

Kilroy has those too. The mule boys we've had, 4 total, 3 of them have had the little "bumps" on the outside of their sheaths. Seems something only the longears get.

Both of the jacks I've worked with had them... never seen them on any stallions, just jacks. I have no idea what they are/were!
