    Firstly congrats on the nice even 12! I’m no expert and still relatively new to the game.. his pedicles are pretty low but not right down but this isn’t a true way to age just a good indicator, the skull is pretty well fused (no gaps which a young animal would have), his length looks around 30inch but I’m unsure of your areas genetics, I haven’t seen how he holds his body just that pic can’t estimate on how he holds his head/ neck so I’d say 6-7 based on the above but would happily welcome others thoughts!
