of course it can!!horses need grain, hay and some other fascinating foods!!
I think it can and I know it would also kill a horse if the horse eats way to many apples
Feeding too much of any treat such as apples or carrots can cause digestive upset, a horses digestive tract is sensitive.
any horse can eat too many apples small or large if they do they will get really sick or they will get colic
Most horses can eat a lot of apples and will not overeat at one feeding. A known case of a horse getting sick from overeating apples is not known. Minor, but it should be "too" many.
Yes too many apples cause diarheaa for horses. They cannot digest the apples correctly and it shoots straight through them.
Would you believe one per day will keep the horse doctor away? -but seriously- I don't have a horse but through the years ALL the horses I've given an apple to seemed to enjoy them enormously. I wouldn't give a horse A LOT of apples all at once, though.
8 apples

No apples cant replace horses hay. Apples should be given as a treat. They dont have enough nutrients in them. Hay is pretty much special kinds of dried grasses(alfalfa, timothy, etc.) and is required if you want a healthy horse. Do some research on the internet to find out where you can get hay, and how much to feed your horse every day.
diarreah
Eating too many apples will cause a laxative effect.
I don't give my horse apples much but, I do when he does something good like he lets me groom him without a fuss and was did good when being ridden. So basically I only give my horse apples as a "good boy treat", I do the same with carrots. But some people give their horses apples twice a day. 2 apples in the morning and 2 in the evening. Hope my answer helped you.
