Yes it can cause colic, but it can also cause the horse to develop Laminitis from the sugars that the plant releases upon being cut. There is also the possibility of poisoning the horse if the grass were accidentally contaminated by engine fluids from the mower.

Horses can eat carpet grass as they will eat the seed heads, but it is low protein and not very nutritious, so you may have to supplement it with hay or a pelleted feed.
