Horses are one of Minecraft’s many neutral or passive mobs. Just as other mobs of this type can be used to gather resources or provide food to a player, horses have their own unique purpose if the player can tame them. Once tamed, a horse can be ridden, and you can give it armor to keep it safe when fighting crowds.
Racehorses in Minecraft
Horses occur naturally in Minecraft and come in different variations. Similar to chickens, cats, wolves, cows, turtles, etc., horses can be bred. Horse breeding follows the same principle as other mobs. The only trick is knowing what to feed the horse.
To breed horses in Minecraft, you need to feed them one of the following items;
- golden apples or
- golden carrots
Between apples and carrots, apples are a lot easier to come by.
Get apples in Minecraft
To get apples in Minecraft, you can search for them in boxes in villages, temples, and mine shafts. You can also dismantle them.
Get Carrots in Minecraft
Carrots are found on farms in villages or in chests in temples, mine shafts, villages, etc. They are most commonly found on village farms, although not all village farms have carrots.
Carrots can be hard to find, but once you find one you can plant and grow more. Unlike apples, one carrot is enough to create your own source for it.
Get gold in Minecraft
Regardless of whether you want to feed a horse a golden apple or a golden carrot, you need gold. Gold is an ore that occurs underground.
To win gold, you need an iron pickaxe. Gold can be found at levels 2-29. Read our guide to Minecraft ores for more details.

The hardest part of horse breeding is finding the gold for apples / carrots. Basically, if you don’t know how to tame a horse, you have to “ride” it and keep doing it until it stops kicking you. That’s all. With certain types of horses, it may take some experimentation while others are much easier to tame.
