You can most definitely see a horse's (an intact male horse is called a stallion) testicles, if you know where to look and what you're looking for. A stallion's testicles are situated parallel to the body which is why they're not so obvious like that of a "cow's".

Cows actually don't have testicles, because cows are actually mature female bovines, not an ambiguous, colloquial term for all bovines. A cow has what is called an udder, not testicles, hanging between her legs. A bull has testicles because it is a male intact bovine specifically for breeding or mating with cows.

Now that those definitions are cleared up, you can see a bull's testicles more obviously because they tend to hang lower and perpendicular to the body, unlike the stallion's (or the boar's).

You're questioning why you can't see a horse's testicles yet you can see a bull's. It's likely that the horse you were looking probably wasn't even a stallion, but a gelding, which is a male horse that has been castrated. Geldings have no testicles that can be seen between their hind legs. Stallions do and they can be visible.

No, the testicles descend shortly after birth, if the testicles haven't descend by six months it is advices to see a doctor (or if there are ever any other concerns or questions, see a doctor.) If the testicles don't descend it can cause sterility and an increased risk in cancer.

Do horses eat straw?

Actually, if there is nothing more interesting to eat, cows and horses will certainly EAT straw. Straw is often used as bedding in horse stall, and many horses eat it. However, straw has about as much nutrition as foam packing peanuts and horses and cows cannot live on such a deficient diet. It's a bit like asking if children eat dirt. Of course they do, but they couldn't live on it. Hay is the proper fodder for farm animals. No, farm animals like horses and cows eat hay, which has nutritional value, but do not eat straw.
