His body looks like a 3yo in general, but that's a lot of tarsal staining for a 3yo. He may be a slim 4yo. In the last pic he has more of the stature of a 4yo, IMO.

Probably too much tarsal staining for a typical 1yo, and the neck has a little more girth. A 1yo's neck should look like a doe if you cover the antlers.
