Is it safe for a horse to eat chicken feed? Reason I ask is....1. My horse eats the chicken feed over the chicken pen/fence and 2.) We are planing on putting new chickens in the pasture with her, and the chickens obviously need to be fed. (Feeding the chickens layer crumbles). So, is it safe or should I find another route to keep her from eating it?

Hi Pony148
No its not good and horses can consume lots of it in a very short time which in turn is lots of $ your hens could have eaten and the risk of a very poorly horse. Hens are clever and will find the feed somewhere the horse cant get to.
So YES find another route
