  1. Does it have a penis?
  2. i'm sorry but seriously... see if it has a ding dong.
  3. Boy horse=Stallion Girl horse=Mare baby boy=Colt baby girl=Filly
  4. Baby horses in general: foals Boy foals: colts Girl foals: fillies Stallion: un-fixed male horse 3 years or older Gelding: fixed male horse Mare: female horse 3 years or older (mares can be fixed, but it is very hard and dangerous) Hope this helps!
  5. Stallion: a male horse with testicles (penis with balls) Gelding: a male horse without testicles (penis with no balls) Mare: Female (you won't see a penis) Foal: a baby horse under the age of 4 Colt: male horse under the age of 4 (again will see a penis) Filly: female horse under the age of 4 (again no penis) Add: Savanna Christensen you might want to recheck your info. Telling the difference between a gelding and a stallion is not difficult, it is quite easy, one has testicles one doesn't. It can be easily seen. A female is not called a mare until 4 years old same goes for a colt. Also a mares teats do not become very noticeable until after she has a foal. If she has never been bred then one might have troubles seeing it unless they are laying on the ground looking or are under the horse.
  6. unisex name for baby horse = foal male baby horse = colt female baby horse = filly adult male horse = stallion adult male horse that is castrated = gelding adult female horse = mare You can tell a horse's gender by looking under their tails or between their legs, it's pretty obvious. Vagina = female. Penis = male. No balls = gelding. ;D
  7. It's nearly impossible to tell the difference between a gelding (neutered male) and a stallion (not neutered male). A baby horse is called a foal. Females under the age of 1 year are called filly's. Males under the age of 1 year are called colts. Females 1 year and older are mares. Males 1 year and older are stallions. To tell the difference between a Stallion and a Mare you just kinda gotta look between the hind legs. Mares will have a very small udder. Stallions and Geldings will have.... well you know. What all males have.
  8. Foal: a horse that is under 4 years old (refers to either gender). Colt: a boy horse that is under 4 years old. Filly: a girl horse that is under 4 years old. Mare: a girl horse that is 4 years old or older. Gelding: a boy horse that can be any age. Geldings have been gelded (cannot make babies and have no testicles). Stallion: a boy horse that is 4 years or older. Stallions CAN make babies.
  9. Stallion-Male horse over 4 years that has not been Gelded (fixed) Gelding-Male horse over 4 that years HAS been Gelded Mare-Female horse over 4 years Foal-Baby horse (male or female) Colt-Male horse under the age of 4 Filly-Female horse under the age of 4 Yearling-One year old or in the year of 2
  10. Girl= mare baby= foal baby girl= filly baby boy= Colt boy with balls= stallion or stud boy without balls= Gelding
  11. okay, lol i'm sorry for people who didn't understand what you meant... like you phrased your question wrong.... as if you asking how to tell a difference between a girl and a guy lol xD i don't think they read your description like some of us did haha but anyways back to your question!! Gelding- A male horse that is castrated.(fixed/cannot breed) Stallion- A male horse Mare- Female Horse Filly- Female horse under 4 years old Colt- Male horse under 4 years old Foal- Male or female horses under 4 years old Some people will also call their one-year-olds Yearlings too. Or if its a male he would be a Yearling Colt or if Female she would be a Yearling Filly (;
  12. dude, look underneath and see if it has a penis=boy , no penis = girl
  13. It simple u can tell if its a boy or girl by whats there, baby horses are foal baby boys are colt baby girls are fillys a horse thats a year old is called a yearling colt or filly theres also a weanling when you wean them from there mothers a adult girl is called a mare and adult boy are called stallion unless cut or fixed also is called castrated.
  14. here is the horse lingo: Filly: a female horse under 4 years old Mare: a female horse over 4 years old Colt: a male horse under 4 years old Stallion: a un gelding(the vet snips the testes off) male horse over 4 years old Gelding: a gelded horse over 4 years old, but techically a colt could be gelded at age 1 and still be a colt. hope this helps ♥
  15. If it has a penis. It's a guy. Mare=Adult female Stallion=Uncastrated Male horse Gelding=Castrated Male horse Filly=Young female horse Colt=Young male horse
  16. http://www.ichregistry.com/images/mddb_undertail.jpg Mare http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_61_6onk_lb0/Rh_SN4sjIRI/AAAAAAAAABo/RAvGLl-HeZc/s200/MH,+Sherman+Sheath.jpg Male horse (Gelding/Stallion- the one pictured is a gelding as he has no testicles) Here are the genders: Mare- female horse Gelding- Gelded/infertile male horse. cannot be bred. Stallion- Breedable, ungelded male horse. Colt- Young male horse (under 4) Filly- Young female horse (under 4) As for ages: Foal- young horse under 1 year Yearling- 1 year old Then from 2-3 it is either colt or filly depending on gender. I hope you dont own a horse
  17. Baby horses in general: Foals Baby girl: Filly Baby boy: Colt Male horse 3 years or older: Stallion Male horse 3 years or older without junk: Gelding Female horse 3 years and older: Mare Some one year old horses will be referred to as "yearling's". Hope I helped! :D
  18. Well a foal girl is a filly and a full grown one is a Mare. a foal boy Stallion or Gelding is called colts. A stallion will have a penis and balls a gelding will just have a penis.
  19. Its pretty obvious, just look between their legs. Name wise: A mare is a older female. A filly is a young female. A gelding is a fixed male. a stallion is a unfixed male. A Colt is a younger male
  20. If it is a boy...it has a thingy (a boy part) if it is a girl...it doesnt.
