Will a Gander “regrow” a penis??

[NickiePA]

I’ve vent sexted my gander several times over a few months. There’s no penis! I was given this Sebastopol last summer. I reached out to the previous owner who only told me “oh wow. I didn’t know. I wasn’t using him for breeding so I had no idea”. I’ve been told by other breeders it’s possible for the gander to “loose” his penis if it didn’t retract after mating. It dries up and falls off. BUT what I’d like to know... “can it grow back?” Does anyone know the answer to this predicament I’m in?

First I've just got to say OW!!

I'm not sure it would regrow. I feel it would be similar to any other animal losing it. The majority don't get it back, at least not functioning.

No.
Are you sure it's a gander?

Sadly. I’m absolutely sure. I didn’t want to become some “big time breeder”, but I really enjoy watching the start to finish hatching process. I used to have Toulouse geese. I’d love the to have the same experience with these Sebbies.

That’s a BIG bummer. He’s such a beautiful bird. I wouldn’t give him up for the world, even if he can’t give me babies to watch grow. I’ve heard Drakes can regrow them after the breeding season ends. I was so hopeful geese could do the same.

I don’t think so. Someone on Instagram had to have an operation on a gander that had a prolapse, it’s gone and isn’t coming back.

Thank you for your reply. I suppose I’ll be on the look out for another gander
