Hay can certanly be bad for horses! It all depends on where the hay was grown, when it was grown and ahrvested, and how long it's been stored before coming to you. If the hay you have for your horse has a slightly musky smell or looks to have a type of fungus growing on it, don't give it to the horses!!! It could make them very sick! Colic can be causedby rotting or bad hay, so always be careful! Colic can be deadly.

Do rabbits eat hay?
Yes, hay is excellent for rabbits! Hay is a great way to keep a rabbit's teeth healthy (they keep growing, and need to be worn down by something!) and digestive system healthy (hay is high in fibre), and a great way to keep them entertained and occupied (rabbits like to graze). Rabbits should have 100% 24/7 unlimited access to fresh hay. Fresh hay is greenish (some varieties more than others), sweet smelling, no mould or moisture, and low dust. Avoid hay that's been sitting on the shelf for months. Good hay for adult rabbits is grass hays like timothy, brome, orchard grass, meadow grass, and oat grass -- although oat grass is a little high in sugars and shouldn't be offered too often. Legume hays, like alfalfa, are not good for healthy adults. Alfalfa is an excellent hay for young rabbits (under one year old), nursing rabbits, pregnant rabbits, and some rabbits who are underweight or have been very sick and need the extra protein and carbs.
