You are always going to see squeakers in the hills all rams pass through this phase on the way to maturity. Only thing is now there will be more squeaker rams around as they won't be taken. There will be more 4/5 curl rams as well. All of these rams will now make it through to the breading season. Were we will now have less full curl rams around to breed. The old system worked because hunters took a variety of animals right from 4 year squeakers to 12 year mature animals. Now we are going to reduce the number of mature animals exclusively
