Matthew 25:33

He will place the sheep (Gk. probaton) [neuter] on his right side [the most honorable place, see Matt. 22:44; 26:64], and the goats (Gk. eriphion) [neuter – both goats and billy goats] on his left.
[The parable is taken from everyday life. Shepherds often let sheep and goats graze together, and from a distance they look quite similar. To separate them, the flock was herded to a gate, where they were separated one by one to the right or left. See also Ezek. 34:17–19. In the Middle East, sheep are more common than goats because sheep are more obedient than goats, which often jump out of enclosures, etc. The word for sheep (Gk. probaton) is neuter, which includes both ewes and rams. The same word is used in both verse 32 and 33. The word for goat, however, differs between the verses. The reason may be that the selection criterion is reinforced by the fact that the word for young goats, which butt and "run around," are the ones separated in verse 32. It is then both goats and sheep (which have acted like young butting goats) that are placed on the left side.]
