I would says he's older than a year, but there does seem to be a lot of big yearlings about. One large every 7-10 days is fine. There's not many that take jumbo x

Jake is between 18 months - 2 years and he's 4'3" and been on large mice for a few months now. I would definitely say he's older than 1!
