Hi,
I noticed recently that there have been these little white (they look like toenail clipping but they're soft) coming g out of my boars penis/anus area. Any ideas what they are and what I should do about it? I've pulled out because I didn't realise they were actually inside but I'm not sure if I should have left it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I've tried adding a picture I'm not sure if it'll work

They are called sperm rods and are basically dried semen. If your boy is prone to them, please check him regularly, as they can be very painful.

If you ever have need to remove one, be sure that it's not one of two penis prongs (as shown in the above links)
