Ok very good question. I have two horses. I also have cows, goats, sheep, ducks, chickens, and 2 farm dogs.
1. Horses and cows are NOT good pasture buddies because: Horses are grass-strippers. They rip out the grass, roots and all, instead of "trim" the grass. Cows are grass-trimmers. They graze the top of the grass, instead of ripping out the grass, roots and all. EXACT opposites. So never put cows and horses int he same pasture together.
2. Horses and goats are fine. Horses stick to eating the grass, while the goats eat the breyers, tree bark, and all of the plants that are poisanous to horses. Perfect match.
3. Horses and chickens. NOPE. Simple. Horses and chickens=horses accidently crush chickens. Trust me, I have experience.
4. Horses and sheep are okay together. I wouldn't recommend it, but, if nothing else is possible, it will work.
5. Horses do well with any other type of Equine. Meaing donkeys, mules, etc.
6. And if you are wondering wether horses get ALONG with other farm animals, well, horses are moody creatures. Trustworthy, kind, and curious, but sometimes moody. SO occasaionally your horse might try to take a snap at your goat or something if he gets mad, or even if he just feels like it. But horses are very companionable animals, so they will get along with pretty much any anilmal, unless that animal gets on their nerves.
I hope I answered your question! If you have any other questions concerning horses, e-mail me at horse4adrien@Yahoo.com. Thanks!
Horses can get along with cows, sheep, and goats, but it depends on the individual animals and their temperament. It is important to introduce them slowly and monitor their interactions to ensure they are getting along well. Providing enough space, food, and shelter for each species can help prevent any conflicts.
Of course. They are both mammals and are both herbivores that have a primary diet that consists of grass. They are also both prey animals and act and behave as such. Also, both are domesticated to live and be raised on farms and ranches.
yes horses don't usually mind sheep but if the horse is male try separating them by a gate at first to see how they get along.
Yes some racing stables have goats as companions. My pony shared a field with cows and later in her life she had two sheep live in her stable with her.She wasn't too keen on goats though.
Horses and Deer can get along but it advised that Deer be kept away from horses as they can spread diseases to the horses they come in contact with.

What animals did the Huang ho valley raise?
The raised horses, cows, sheep, goats, and oxen.
What other animals can pasture with cows?
Sheep, goats, and horses. This provided cows are already familiar with these animals, and the number of horses are not equal to or more than the number of cows (or goats or sheep). Horses are extremely piggish and selfish when it comes to even grazing, and will harass any non-horse animal so that they get more feed for themselves. Having enough room to graze (and enough feed) would be enough to mitigate this problem.
