Horse hay is really just grass that has been mowed and bundled. It often has the same bugs living in it that were in it while it was growing. Many bugs will also burrow their way into bales of hay and set up housekeeping there.
Are you asking is it okay to ride a horse when they are on just hay? It is completely fine to ride a horse that is on just hay. My horse is fat as a cow and she was on all hay, no feed all summer. I rode her regularly.

The horse can walk to the hay by simply pulling up the string that he is tied to and moving towards the hay until he reaches it.
no it isn't. you could try soaking the grain and hay first before feeding it to the horse.

No, horse feces does not turn into hay. Horse feces is composted and it turns into horse manure. This is used as a fertilizer.
Any hay can founder a horse, it is not what the horse eats but how much it eats. Some feed can founder a horse faster than others. Peanut hay is one of those.

No second cut hay often has more nutrients in it than first cut hay. But if the horse is overweight or not working much then first cut hay would be better if the horse will eat it.

certainly - if you do have mouldy hay throw it out straight away because there may be lice in the hay, which could be harmfull, for your horse.
Not much. Horse hay is mostly green hay that comprises of 95 to 100% grass. Cow hay, on the other hand, can be as green and grassy as horse hay, but can also be hay that is much higher in legume content (often up to 90%) than horse hay.
horses do not get hay. their owner or master buys the hay for them. then the human throws the hay on the ground for the horse to eat. Humans go to farm that sells hay then they buy it. a horse eats on average 150 bales of a hay a year, that is if they do not graze in the the summer.
