[Jacob-list] Banding ram lambs??

[Karen]

    I have a couple of questions:   At what age do most of you band your 
ram lambs?  Do you band earlier if they are going to be meat sheep?  
What is the oldest age/mos. that  you will band a ram lamb. 
    In the spring as meat sheep, is there any difference in taste with 
ram lambs that have been banded, versus those that have not been banded?
Thanks  Karen Sigler
