When do geldings get gelded?
Geldings have already been gelded: They are castrated male horses, which means their testes have already been removed. To "geld" is to castrate a male horse like a stallion or colt. Thus, geldings do not need to be castrated because they have already had the surgery done on them earlier in their lives. Horses (more specifically stallions or colts) can be gelded at any age but most are gelded when they are around yearlings or two-year olds, usually right after their testicles drop, or before they reach sexual maturity. However it's not uncommon to have stallions gelded after reaching sexual maturity, especially if they are no longer needed for breeding purposes, or even to calm the horse down, since stallions are more difficult to handle due to hormones than mares or geldings.
