Abstract: Let $f$ be a transcendental meromorphic function and $U$ be an invariant Baker domain of $f$. We use estimates for the hyperbolic metric to show that there is a relationship between the size of $U$ and the proximity of $f$ in $U$ to the identity function, and illustrate this by discussing how the dynamics of transcendental entire functions of the following form vary with the parameter $a$:

\begin{equation*}f(z) = az + bz^ke^{-z}(1+o(1)) \; \text{ as } \Re (z) \rightarrow \infty, \end{equation*}

where $k \in \mathbf N$, $a \geq 1$ and $b > 0$.
