Best Answer

Horses acquire food by foraging; they are herbivores which means they eat vegetation such as grass, weeds, flowers, the bark off trees (generally only when they are really hungry). Domesticated horses (horses that are owned, trained and cared for by humans) are given food by their owners, generally hay (dried grass/weeds/alfalfa) and grain (a mixture of oats, corn, other grains and molasses) on a daily or twice daily basis.
