yes, and diarrhoea is the leading cause of death in horses today. look me up: ThoroughbredLover
Yes too many apples cause diarheaa for horses. They cannot digest the apples correctly and it shoots straight through them.
Too many apples can cause diarrhea in horses. Yes. Too much fiber causes diarrhea, and it can last quite a while. I don't think it is the Fibre. Hay has much more fibre than an apple. It is probably the higher sugar content.
Feeding too much of any treat such as apples or carrots can cause digestive upset, a horses digestive tract is sensitive.
of course it can!!horses need grain, hay and some other fascinating foods!!
yes
Many green apples are bad for horses because they have alot of acid and are gassy, which could make them sick. Apples could also cause colic. Preferably, give your horse snacks like carrots and hay or if you are going to feed them apples, opt for Red Declicious.
Bacteria may cause diarrhoea. Not all the diarrhoeas are caused by bacteria. There are many causes of diarrhoea. Diarrhoea may be caused with out any infection.
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.
I have heard that it is dangerous for horses to eat crab apples because they are poisonous to them. This is the same as acorns which can kill them if they eat too many because they can not digest them.
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.
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.
