Bill is about 3 years-old and 5". How long do you think it will be before he reaches full size?

He could be close to it already. Have you been measuring and recording him?

They'll grow slowly once they are older, so you might have to measure to note any changes.

Yup but I'll wait a couple of years to have a final size.
