Ok I looked up wether - FYI if you didn't know:
Wether sheep are usually sold in an auction for butcher after they are shown. They are bred for show and meat.  There is no flavor or quality difference in the meat from a young ram lamb vs. the meat from a wether (castrated male) or ewe lamb. However, as ram lambs sexually mature, their hormones may cause a slight taint in the flavor of meat. Rams are more difficult to process. All ram lambs not intended for breeding are CASTRATED. Males who are not castrated and turned into wethers are often too smelly to keep.

Great job Joe Paul!  We were looking for the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Sprirt), but like your first answer too!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!  :santahat;
