Is barley grass ok for horses to eat?
There is no one right answer for all horses regarding if certain grains are bad for them or not. Barley is considered to be fairly easily digested and provide a less sugary source of nutrition for horses than say, oats. However horses with certain metabolic issues should avoid starchy grains altogether. But if the horse has no issues and is in hard to heavy work then barley likely won't cause any problems if fed appropriately.
