don't know definite age - but I think it's when they are able to start breeding.  So a lamb will be lamb on the table until it's between a year and 18 months (about!).  Then it turns into old mutton!

According to my ex-butcher husband they are about a year old when eaten and they grow quickly so have big legs.
