Banding

I have a question about banding. I bought some bull calves from a guy a few months ago and at the time I bought them he banded them. I watched him do it. My only question is that it has been about 3 months and the testicles still have not fallen off. Is this normal? Or could it be that the banding was done wrong? These are the first steers I have raised so I'm not sure what exactly is supposed to happen. Thanks for any insight on this.
 
If the scrotum is all shriveled up and dry looking it worked. Sometimes takes months for them to fall of depending on the saize when they were banded.
