Horses' digestive systems never truly stop producing digestive acids. When their sensitive stomachs are empty of food they are stressed, prone to colic, ulcers, and boredom leading to destructive stall vices just to mention a few of the consequences. Horses should have access to low calorie, high fiber forage at all times. Feeding two, three or even four feedings a day is unnatural for horses. We are tied to feeding them "small meals" throughout the day because we care about their sensitive digestive systems. But what are the horse's eating at night while we are sleeping? Dinner out with friends, overnight outings, a full day away from the barn, those are only memories... .
These hay nets can be hung on fences, hung in box stalls, or laced down and thrown on the ground like a pillow. Will not blow away in the wind and your horse eats every morsel. ZERO WASTE!
Allows your horses to self regulate and not need to be frantic at feeding time because of an upset stomach.
- 1/8" (3mm) nylon mesh woven into 1 1/2" squares.
- 250lb tensil strength
You can use any type of hay in the nets. The broader the leaf, the slower it goes through the net. The small leaves of alfalfa will fall quickly through the net so we recommend a feeder or rubber mat on the ground to catch them, leaving zero waste.
- 2' x 2.5' - Holds 15 lbs of hay, 1-3 Flakes. Meant for trailering. Or the small guys!
- 4' x 2.5' - Holds 35 lbs of hay, 5-7 Flakes, Meant for 1 to 2 whole days per single horse.
- 4' x 3' - Holds 50 lbs of hay. Meant for multiple days or multiple horses.
- 4.75' x 3.5' - Up to 110 lbs of hay. Meant for multiple days or multiple horses.
Will last until or past their next feeding. For example, if you feed 2 flakes morning & night, but you feed 4 flakes in a slow feeder hay bag, you will only have to feed 1 time a day. These bags come in 4 sizes; from Trailer Size to Full Bale.
