Horses can eat potatoes, but it is not recommended to feed them in large quantities or as a regular part of their diet. Potatoes are a starchy vegetable that can be difficult for horses to digest, and they may also contain solanine, a toxic substance that can be harmful to horses if consumed in large amounts.

If you choose to feed your horse potatoes, it’s important to cook them thoroughly and remove the skin to make them easier to digest. Additionally, it’s best to feed them in small amounts and as an occasional treat rather than a significant source of your horse’s nutrition.

It’s also important to remember that horses have specific dietary needs, and their diet should primarily consist of hay, grass, and a balanced horse feed. Feeding too many potatoes or any other food can disrupt the balance of their diet and lead to health issues.

Overall, while horses can eat potatoes in moderation and with caution, it’s not recommended to include them as a regular part of their diet. If you have any concerns about adding potatoes or any other food to your horse’s diet, it’s always best to consult with a veterinarian or equine nutritionist.
