Sacrifices
What Happens If You Do Not Offer Ud-hiyah for Years?
If a person does not offer Ud-hiyah although he can afford to do so, he is missing out on a lot of reward that results from offering the sacrifice, but he is not sinning, and he does not have to make up for what he missed in years past.73,715What is the ruling on charities slaughtering udhiyah (sacrifices) without mentioning the donors by name at the time of slaughter?
1,675His sacrifice (udhiyah) was slaughtered without him giving any instruction to that effect

14,011Buying a share (in an animal) for the udhiyah, sharing with one who wants to offer a wedding feast, and the minimum amount that is required for the wedding feast
Based on that: There is nothing wrong with you sharing the purchase of the cow with your relatives, so that you will have one seventh of the cow, which you will intend as an udhiyah – but less than one seventh will not be acceptable as a sacrifice on your part – and they will dispose of the rest of it in whatever manner they like, whether for a wedding feast or otherwise. But we should point out that the minimum age of a cow for it to be acceptable as a sacrifice is two years; anything younger than that will not be acceptable, even if it has a lot of meat. Please see question no. 41899. And Allah knows best.14,060Is Udhiyah Obligatory?
