feed questions

[Anastasia Hurley <ahurley@cncx.com>]

1) Someone on the list said that they fed flax seed. I am thinking of
adding it to Elvis' ration as he is not that keen on corn oil
Is there any downside to feeding flax seed? Do you have to soak it first
or anything? 

2) Beet pulp - this I know that I have to soak :-)
Can I feed Beet pulp or is that going to cause a problem as my horse is
allergic to molasses.*


* The allergy (maybe should call it a reaction) manifests itself as moon
blindness. (Also cannot tolerate ivermectin as it brings on attacks) My
vet says that the molasses thing makes no sense but you can't argue with
no attacks in a couple years.
