Can horses eat onions

Answer 1

They should not eat it regularly because it will cause anemia. Many will avoid it if pasture is good quality but will choose to eat it if it is growing faster than the grass, which it sometimes does in the spring.

Answer 2

Onion grass (Romulea rosea) or wild onion is certainly edible. It can be used as you would use chives, and the bulb can even be dug and used like small shallots or scallions. Be careful however. There are several plants that look a lot like onion grass but which are not edible - for example: Death Camas (Zigadenus venenosus) is often confused with Wild Onion and is EXTREMELY POISONOUS! Other nasty plants with a similar appearance include water hemlock and foxglove. None of the non-edible look-alikes have the characteristic "onion smell" of onion grass so that is a good indication of whether you have the edible plant or not.

Answer 3

Yes, onions will not hurt horses.

NO! Horses cannot eat onions- they are on the "foods not to feed horses" list.
