Default Getting prelims for Noel!

Im getting OFA prelims done this coming up Monday for Noel. Im going to a highly recommended vet that does lots of xrays for OFA and they have an ortho that comes in on Thursdays that looks over the xrays and is pretty right on as to what they are and will be graded. Im really excited because I have been really wanting to get them done but at the same time Im super nervous as to what they will be. Its going to be a long rest of the week and a long weekend of waiting!

At what age should one conduct the OFA prelims ideally? Zeus just turned one and I'm thinking about getting him x-ray'd.

Im pretty sure you can do it as early as 6 months, maybe even 4 months. I know for sure you cannot get a final OFA grade until they are 2 yrs of age.
