In my area and most places the age that crops are done is between 7-10 weeks some will do it at 12 weeks. The longer you wait the less of a chance that the ears will stand. I would have liked Festus to be done at 8 weeks but due to snow and the roads being quite slipppery, he got done just shy of 10 weeks.sigpic

My vet cropped Harley's ears at 9 weeks old, I had to beg her to put his appointment first. She stops at 10 weeks. There was another vet we consulted with just before I found her, he wouldn't touch Harley until 14 weeks, when I asked the % of success, he said between 70-80%. When I found my vet and told her what he said she just laughed, said that is why he has a low rate, he is cropping to late. Harley's ears are perfect and they stand perfect, for nowsigpic-
