A foal is a baby horse of any gender, while a colt is specifically a male horse under 4 years old.
A colt is a male foal under 4 years old (after a year they can be classed as a yearling) but there is no real difference, if you're talking about a male foal you could just call it a colt or a foal. No difference.

∙ 10y agoNo they are not. Many people use the term "colt" to refer to a foal, but this is incorrect. All baby horses are foals, males are colts and females are fillies. The correct terms for each would be colt foal or filly foal.
