Thanks Nancy!
Whether a wether changes when wethered depends on his color to start. Bucks have darker, more prominent black markings along the shoulders and back. These will fade and get narrower if he's wethered, and some of them may disappear altogether. Finn and our old boy Pac-Man had very wide, prominent black martingales on their shoulders when they were bucks, but these disappeared entirely after they were wethered. I believe Pac-Man's dorsal strip disappeared as well. Many wethers keep their dark dorsal stripe but it is narrower and often not quite as deep black as it would be if he stayed a buck.
