Anita, 
I've been told for years that as long as it isn't more than 25% of the entire ration, it's not a problem. Unless of course the horse is sensitive to it, which I've heard some are (though fortunately I haven't had to deal with that). So your 1/4 flake should be fine.

I was just on NATRC site and they were talking about not feeding alfalfa to distance horses. I know everyone has their own way to feed, but what is the general consensus.
