Many horse owners who have fed flax in the past would gasp in horror if you asked if flax seed can be fed whole. The fact is, it CAN be fed as a whole seed. Recent research done on various seeds found that nutrients were extracted from the seed hulls even if some seeds appeared “whole” in the manure. If you do decide to ground your flax seed, make sure you ground it fresh for every feeding. The nutrients start degrading as soon as they are touched by light and oxygen. By the time you have ground them and put them in your horse's feed bin they have already lost nutrients. Ground flax can go rancid very quickly. You can grind early and store the extra in the freezer which will prevent rancidity but you are still going to have nutrient loss. If you grind your flax seed, make sure you clean your grinder thoroughly after every grinding. Small pieces of flax seed can get trapped where they will quickly go rancid and potentially ruin future batches.
