druid animal order and beastmaster archetype

Background:
I developed a halfling druid, storm order, for PF Society play. At level 2 I took order explorer (animal order) and acquired a bear for a companion. At level 4 I made the bear a mature companion.
Since then we have played through Fall of Plaguestone for Society credit. I applied the XP to my druid, which also gave him access to the fiery leopard companion.

So here is my question; if I take the Beastmaster archetype at level 6 (getting the fiery leopard), does that animal companion start out as a young companion, or can I apply my mature companion feat from level 4 to him as well.


Per strict RAW, you need the Beastmaster Mature Companion to apply it to both of your companions. But you can retrain your 4th level feat to take Beastmaster Dedication when you hit level 6 and as such take the Beastmaster Mature Companion at level 6. It will solve all your issues.

Ewww! I hadn't thought of that. This is why the forums are so helpful.
Thanks for the feedback
