I finally got some scales and weighed my micronised linseed last night. Im only feeding 30g is this enough for a good doer in summer or add more? and how much more for winter?
 
Depends, 30 gms for small pony, 60gms for a big cob would be a summer minimum, in winter I feed 200gms to a TB type 15.00hh in light work.
30gms is a mineral scoop, you may need to measure out ten days worth, weigh and divide by ten when dealing with small amounts.

shes a 14hh lw ish cob. Who does pile on the pounds but looking good atm. Just didnt want to be dramatically under feeding it and it having no use. Found I was under feeding her agnus castus by a lot so just wondered.
 
You could go to 75g to just improve coat - or more for weight increase. 100grams daily is considered optimum for a horses coat. Please check with Charnwood as to how much raw Linseed you can feed or whether the micronnising has neutralised the poison in Linseed.
