Aqeeqah was never made for a person. Can he now, an adult, have Aqeeqah made for himself?

Answer

If the adult person wishes to make Aqeeqah for himself/herself, it will be permissible. For a male two sheep/ goats and for a female one sheep/goat. The animals could be slaughtered on any day, and the meat could be distributed to the poor, family members and friends. While it is permissible to distribute the meat in any way one wishes, the preferable method is to divide the meat in three more or less equal portions. One portion for the poor, one for relatives and friends, and one portion for oneself.
