Is this normal for a 16 week boar. He is our first boar and we aren’t sure if this is impaction.

Why do you think he is impacted? Is his anal sac full of poo?

Those look like an impressive pair of testicles! which is normal. Boars' 'dangleberries' vary in size

Have a look at this guide

He didn’t have any hard lumps they were quite soft. He had quite a smelly behind so was a bit concerned. Didn’t think he to have such large goolies so young.
 
Oh yes some piggie dangleberries are very impressive! My 2 boars visited the plum fairy so they don't have any to show off. :bye:
