Yes, colts are young male horses
Fillys are young female horses
A stallion is a full grown male who has not been fixed, or in horse terms castrated
A Gelding is a castrated also known as fixed, male horse
And a mare is a full grown female horse
Hoped this helped!

Filly - Female Horse 3 years or younger
Stallion - A Male Horse 2 years or older with its testircles in tact (usually dropping at two years and breeding)

Stallions - sexually intact male horse (has testicles)
Gelding - sexually altered male horse (has had testicles surgically removed)
Mare - Female horse
Usually the terms filly and colt are used for younger horses before they reach sexual maturity.

A mare is a female, a stallion is a male who still has testicles, a gelding is a neutered male.

Colts are baby horses that are guys to be specific
Fillies are baby girl horses (under 4 years)
Geldings are castrated males
Stallions are uncastrated and tend to be on the wilder side
Mares are the females (4 years and over)

geldings are male horses who have had there balls cut off.Mares are female horses that have had a foal.A stallion is a horse used for breeding and is a male.They tend to be kind of crazy but's that's due to NOT having there balls cut off
