I've always found the easiest way to be cutting them in half and then counting the rings...or was that trees? HAHAHA
It's really hard to tell. It's possible you have an early hatchling that's eating incredibly well, or you could have a yearling that's doing maybe just a bit behind the average. My guess would be that it's an '02 baby, but I'm not an expert by any means.
Take care,

all i know is he is eating 2 adult mice every 4-5 days but i am going to try and switch him to weanling rats on his next feeding. so i hope that it will work out. he has eaten rat pups before i just bought mice instead. dont know why but i will see if he will eat them this time.
