Charnwood Milling Micronised Full Fat Linseed Meal – 20kg
Micronised full fat linseed, milled to a meal and ready to feed from the bag. Micronising is a cooking process — infrared heat that swells and bursts the seed — and it is what removes the need to boil linseed at home before it is safe to put in a bucket.
Full fat means the oil has been left in, which is the whole reason for feeding linseed: it is one of the richest ordinary sources of omega-3 in a horse's diet, and the calories arrive as oil rather than as starch. The 20kg sack is a yard quantity rather than a supplement tub.
Performance & Benefits
- Micronised, so it is ready to feed straight from the bag with no boiling.
- Full fat — the oil is left in rather than pressed out.
- Fed for coat, skin and condition, and as an oil-based alternative to cereal calories.
- Ground to a meal, so it mixes through a feed rather than sitting on top of it.
- 20kg sack, sized for a yard rather than a single horse.
Suitable For
- Horses needing condition without added cereal starch.
- Coat and skin through the moult and the show season.
- Horses on a forage-and-balancer diet that need more calories.
- Yards feeding linseed to several horses.
- If you want published figures to feed against, British Horse Feeds publish a full typical analysis for their cooked linseed and Charnwood Milling do not.
Feeding
- Ready to feed. Measure the amount you want and mix it through the normal feed.
- Introduce it gradually, as with any increase in dietary oil.
- Charnwood Milling publish no feeding rate for this product, so follow the rate printed on the sack.
- Fresh clean water available at all times.
Composition & Analysis

- Charnwood Milling publish no declared composition list, typical analysis or analytical constituents for this product on their own website. None is stated here, and none has been carried across from other sources.

- Descriptions elsewhere say this feed is fortified with added calcium. Charnwood Milling publish nothing to that effect, so it is not repeated here.

- High in oil. Build the daily amount up over a week or two rather than starting at the full rate.
