A goat between the ages of 1 and 2 years is known as what?

A goat between the ages of 1 and 2 years is referred to as a yearling. This term is commonly used in animal husbandry to describe young animals that have surpassed the juvenile stage but are not yet fully mature. The classification helps producers and veterinarians understand the growth and developmental phases of the animal, which can influence care, feeding, and health management practices.

The term "kid" refers specifically to a young goat that is less than a year old, typically under six months. A "sow" is a term used for a female pig, and "buck" refers to an intact male goat. These terms each apply to different animals or different life stages, making "yearling" the appropriate and precise term for a goat in that age range.
