Is it ok to sacrifice a larger animal (like a cow, ox, or buffalo) rather than a goat or a sheep for the purpose of [aqeeqah](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqiqah) ?
If yes, then is it ok to divide the shares as two for the boy and the rest for others in the family, since a larger animal has shares of seven people in it?

If Someone has not done Aqiqa of His Baby after birth so can he perform Aqiqa after His Maturity any time? Would That be Valid? JazakAllah.
