Technically, yes, horses are capable of eating broccoli. However, broccoli in large quantities can cause gas build-up in the intestines, which in some cases can lead to gas colic (a potentially fatal problem). Therefore, it is not recommended to feed your horse broccoli.

It is okay to feed horses a very small amount of broccoli, although many will not eat it. Broccoli can cause gas and bloating along with colic in a horse.

Answer 2:

Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli are considered bad for horse as it can cause gas build up and since horses cannot vomit or burp and they will develop painful gas colic. It is best to avoid feeding any cruciferous vegetables to horses at all.

Horses probably can eat cauliflower, for two reasons.

One, think about this. IF you had to eat paper, you might not like it, but it's possible.


Two, now think about the horse. Even if the horse didn't like cauliflower, it could still eat it.

Horses can eat celery and since it contains mostly water it can be good for them in smaller amounts. Broccoli however is not good for horses and should be avoided.

A horse can eat lettuce, but typically it is not recommended as it adds nothing to the diet and feeding too much could result in digestive upsets such as diarrhea or even colic.
