Some horses like their feed sweet. Some prefer alfalfa over grass hay. Some will eat anything put in front of them, while others will refuse feed all together for a variety of reasons (including for no reason at all).

Go to a barn or stable with multiple horses and chances are likely that you’ll find at least one equine Goldilocks in the bunch. In last week’s online poll, we asked our readers if they’ve ever had a horse that was a picky eater or decided he no longer wanted to eat what they offered him. More than 400 people responded and we’ve tallied the results!

Of the 413 respondents, 212 (51%) said yes, they’ve had a picky eater or a horse that no longer wanted the feed they offered. The remaining 201 respondents (49%) said they have not.
