Male rabbits can be castrated around 4 months when their testicles descend into the scrotal sacs. Cryptorchid animals have testicles retained within the abdominal cavity or residing in the inguinal canal or prescrotal regions. Retained testicles are often a lot smaller than scrotal testicles, and are prone to medical conditions such as testicular torsion or cancer. Bilaterally undescended testes are normally infertile because of heat-induced damage to the sperm-producing cells of the testicle.
