    Think they have to be over 8 months to not be considered veal.

    I wouldn't be afraid to feed him on till he is 12 months. If he is a good one he'll keep piling on the weight and won't go over fat.
    As for the age a factory will kill him at I don't know but don't see any problem as long as he is fat. Problem here is usually getting them away before they are too old!
