The latter overwrites the former.

If you want to quickly make male and female versions of a caste, and have only those two castes, just follow what's done in creature_standard.txt.  If you want several pairs of castes, then you can build the base caste of a pair (for example the male) and then have

[USE_CASTE:GREEN_FEMALE:GREEN_MALE]
[FEMALE]
[MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE]

... rest of creature ...


This duplicates the GREEN_MALE caste, and you add tags.  The [FEMALE] tag overrides the [MALE] tag, so you don't need to worry about removing it or anything.

On the other hand, you might want to skip back to the GREEN_MALE to add geldable bits, since I'm not sure what effect they have on a female.

Once you're happy with the green castes, move on the red ones and blue ones and so on.
