I bought some natural raw whole flax seed to feed and am
wondering… how much?? Do any of you feed flax seed, and if so how
much? Have you seen any noticeable improvements, and if so what??
The bag says 3 TBSP provides 11 grams of fat (1 gram
saturated and 0 grams trans fat), 0 cholesterol or sodium, 11 grams
carbohydrate (9 grams dietary fiber, 0 sugar) and 6 grams of protein.
One horse is my 18 year old MO Fox Trotter gelding –
cart horse and pleasure/trail - who is currently fed ½ lb Omelene 100 + ½ lb
Horse Chow 100 each morning and evening (MSM added in AM feed). Not sure
if I need to give him any. The other horse is my hopeful endurance horse
– a 5 year old ½ arab, ½ QH gelding – who is currently fed ¾ lb
Ultima + ¾ lb Horse Chow 100 each morning and evening (Biotin added in AM
feed). Both are (usually) on 24/7 turnout with access to good quality
round baled hay and fresh water. My arabX is a palomino, but very light,
and I was told the flax seed may bring out his color.
