There is no type of grass, but short-medium length is good. That's what my horse eats when they are in their paddock all day. Just make sure that there is not much, if not none of the lush, long grass and especially no freshly mowed grass, as that causes colic. Hope this helped :)

Can you give horses grass clippings?
No you can't because horses are grazing all the time throughout the day, and only eating small amounts at a time. So when you give them grass cuttings they are eating far much more grass as when they are grazing so their digestive system can't handle all the grass at one time, and it will most probably give them colic, and then they may die.

What do horses eat and how do they eat and when do they eat?
The horse is an herbivor, which means he only eats plant life, grasses mostly. If no grass is available they will need hay and some kind of grain to make sure they get all the nutrition they require. Their teeth are flat for grinding their food and in their natural habitat will graze for about 20 hours a day. For a healthy horse that has run out of food in paddock: the popular way to feed a horse that has no feed left is to feed it 2-3 scoops of oaten chaff, 50mls of apple cider vineger, 20mls of dolomite and enough water to dampen the mixture. Horses Love It!
Should horses be kept in reticulated paddocks?
I will assume that by reticulated paddocks you mean divide paddocks used for rotation. This is one of the best methods for keeping horses on grass for as long as possible. It allows one or more paddocks to recover while the horse has grass in another paddock. Thus preventing grazing down of all the grass and having the paddock torn up in bad weather.

A horse lives in a?
A horses best habitat is in a field with lush green grass and a stable at night time some places do not keep stables but just different fields which is also OK. Horses and ponies need a shelter which can be used if a horse goes lame. If you keep them out all the time you will need a starvation paddock. It doesn't sound nice but all it does is stop the horse getting overweight but it still has water and some grass. You need to make sure there is another field in winter just in case the field gets too muddy which can harm the horse.Hope you have fun on your horse
