The age of the sheep that is sufficient for the 'aqiqah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I want to perform the 'aqiqah for my son.

The Shaykh:
Hmm?

The questioner:
I want to perform the 'aqiqah for my son, so what is the age of the sheep that I slaughter, and it is sufficient?

The Shaykh:
Like the age of the evening, if it is a sheep, at least six months, and if it is a goat, a full year.
