In times past horses were often feed boiled eggs for protein. It should be noted that horses do not process animal protein very well at all and it can affect their digestive systems. If your horse needs increased protein then it would be best to find a formulated horse feed with a higher protein level.

Answer 2:

Sometimes foals that are born prematurely or are doing poorly are given raw egg to help give them a protein boost and give them a kick-start to life. However, eggs are not nor should not be a common thing fed to horses. As mentioned above, a formulated protein ration for horses that comprises primarily of vegetable and vegetable-by product is best for horses. Soybean meal or canola meal is high protein that may be considered to be given to horses that require a high-protein supplement.

Bot flies lay their eggs on the horses hair, typically on the legs and sometimes on the undersides of the body where the horse will lick them off.
