Can you do Qurbani with a female sheep?

Question:

Can you do Qurbani with a female sheep? And how old does it have to be?

Answer:

Qurbani can be done with a female sheep, and it should be one year old. If however, it is a little less than a year but looks like a one-year old in size, then it can be used for Qurbani.
