It only looks like a hatchling. It functions in all ways (breeding, earning, Colosseum, leveling up) at the level it was when changed. Think of it as a disguise. ;) The appearance won't change except gaining an orb or crown if it didn't have one before it changed or changing it back to its proper age in the Fountain.
