Sheep (Ovis ares) are a more general term for lambs. Also, lamb can also be confused with hogget and mutton. A lamb is a young sheep under 12 months of age which does not have permanent incisor teeth, while hogget refers to sheep having no more than two permanent incisor teeth and mutton refers to sheep having more than two permanent incisor teeth.
