Hi all,

I wondered if anyone can tell me at what age a kit is fully developed, physically?
I have a 4.5 month old hob who seems to be coming into season, and want to be sure he's reached his maximum physical development before he's neutered.
A friend told me that a hormone surge is important for bones, but I'm afraid I can't recall the reasons he gave, as it was a few years ago.

Any advice would be much appreciated

Carol
