Hello from N.WI where we are getting enough new snow to cover up all the
yuck. I just ordered my 3rd set of slow feeder hay nets and they are
the size to hold 2 generous flakes of hay. Long ago when I first owned
Heidi, I was bound & determined th

I got another hay net to add to my growing collection at a local re-sale store
for $5. It is a 1" mesh with fairly thick, soft, braided netting so the holes
may even be smaller than her other 1" nets. The one on sale had been
beautifully mended up one sid

Be aware that you could consider taking a 150 gallon Behlen's water tank
(plastic...6 feet long by 2 feet high by 2 feet wide) and installing the
tank in that. I think I paid $185 with tax for mine (locally). You have
to drill out the sides. It works pretty

Gail,
Thank you for sharing the info on the Happy Grazer nets. I have been feeding
with Cinch Chix (now Hay Chix) slow grazer nets for the past 6 months. I am
very happy with the nets and slow feeding grass hay 24/7 is working well for
our four fjords. I
harder to load than flipping hay into
some "barrel-funnels" ( topped and tailed 35 gallon plastic barrels (to
which the hay nets are attached on the bottom). Gail

I use the small hole hay nets for my horses and love them. What they used to
eat in 1/2 hour now takes them closer to 1 1/2 hours. My only concern is when
I had my horse massaged , the Connemara not the Fjord, she was very tight at
the poll and on either side

I purchased two of the small mesh hay nets from Dover after all the
discussion of slowing down the hay intake of our Fjords. So I must
report that it took Heidi 4 to 5 hrs. of work to empty one small flake
out of the new net. Certainly kept her busy for

In regards to the small mesh hay nets. I'm very tempted to try one, but
what about the horse eventually having problems from dust etc. because
he/she is not eating in a natural head down position? The net hanging
free to swing is a good tip.

Personally, I love the Dover small mesh hay nets. But, when I first got them,
my horses destroyed them, as in tore huge holes in the nets. Then I got some
new ones and hung them from the center beam of the ceiling where they couldn't
get them push
