When you buy him, or should you wait till he's used to his new surroundings. Anyone here have experience with this? Thanks.

Genesis 17
12-13From now on, your family must circumcise every baby boy when he is eight days old. You must even circumcise any man or boy you have as a slave, both those born in your homes and those you buy from foreigners. This will be a sign that my promise to you will last forever.

Hold a tick, isn’t he supposed to “make a decision for Yahweh” before he receives the sign of the covenant? You know “believers circumcision”

The Laws, (Jewish, Moslem and so on) are a bit vague on on circumcision after a certain age. But it is recommended by the Turks that he be neutered so he doesn't pick up Onanism.

Must have been referring to indentured servants, a bit different from slavery.

Probably ASAP, you dont want him to be a bad influence on the others you know, but if he's the only one you've got it can wait a tick longer.

Yahoodie, man, you should have told us Abraham was kin. I for one would have been treating you differently had I known.

Didn't baptism replace circumcision in the NT?
