Mare loves them, but the geldings all turn their nose upto them.

 

[CastleMouse]

Horses do eat bananas, tried giving one to Castle before though, and he hated it! He prefers carrots and apples!

Some do......I believe bananas are high in potassium. We have about 20 horses and none of them will eat bananas however.

 

[aran]

they are aran's most favourite food - without exception!

 

[hayliana]

research into horses favourite flavours rated bananas as one of the highest, and garlic in fact came quite low compared.

Bee LOVES bananas, especially over ripe ones we don't eat at home! She can sniff them a mile away. She also loves pears, the juicier the better but she squirts the juice out of her mouth so you stand well back.. On the subject of banana, do you feed peeled or unpeeled? Bee get them peeled but I have often wondered...

Linnet loves them but my old girl won't touch them at all.

 

[Nic]

Mine loves them!

 

[jacks_mum]

[digger2]

My horse leo loved them

 

[littlehoofprint]

my old pony (38yrs old) has hardly any teeth so LOVES them!

 

[siennamiller]

my vet told me they are bad for horses becuase they are so high in potassium?

 

[Ariella]

Do horses eat bananas??

Not in Australia they dont.....unless they are owned by millionaires!! lol

After the Cyclone Larry that hit QLD's banana growing areas Bananas are up to $16.00 a KG at the local supermarket!!

YIKES!!!!

Australias quarrantine laws prohibit the importation of Bananas because of a disease that they can carry..... I can say it, I just cant spell it so wont make an idiot of myself trying! lol......

 

[hayliana]

my ozzie relatives have just been over and the first thing they said when they walked in my kitchen was "wow look they can afford bananas!!!"

 

[Chumsmum]

Chum will only eat bananas if I hand feed them rather than sliced in his bucket - spoilt brat

The shetlands turned their noses up at them!

 

[Toadeyes]

Yes, they prefer them to apples apparently.

 

[Sooty]

You see, Australia just has so much going for it... (I loathe bananas!)

Horsey loves them however, her absolute favourite snack.
