Premium Slow Feeder Haynet

The Premium Slow Feeder Haynet is a durable, small-hole haynet designed to help slow forage consumption, encourage smaller mouthfuls and reduce unnecessary hay waste.

Made from heavy-duty nylon, this haynet is built for regular stable, yard and travelling use. The small, evenly spaced openings make the horse work more gradually for its forage compared with feeding loose hay or using a large-hole haynet, helping to extend feeding time.

With a generous capacity and sturdy drawstring closure, it is a practical option for everyday feeding at home, while travelling or at competitions.

Why Use a Slow Feeder Haynet?

Horses are naturally adapted to consume forage gradually over extended periods.

When hay is provided loose or through a large opening, some horses can consume their ration very quickly. A small-hole slow feeder haynet restricts the amount of forage that can be pulled through at one time.

This can help:

• Extend the time taken to consume a hay ration.
• Encourage smaller mouthfuls.
• Reduce rapid forage consumption.
• Keep forage contained.
• Reduce hay being pulled onto the stable floor.
• Reduce unnecessary forage waste.

Heavy-Duty Nylon Construction

The haynet is manufactured from durable nylon for regular equestrian use.

This makes it a practical choice for horses that use haynets daily, whether at home in the stable, around the yard or while away at shows.

As with all haynets, it should be inspected regularly and replaced if the netting, knots or drawstring become damaged.

Generous Capacity

The Premium Slow Feeder Haynet is designed to hold a generous quantity of hay, reducing the need for frequent refilling.

The exact capacity was not supplied, so I would avoid stating a kilogram capacity until you have physically measured it.

Easy Drawstring Closure

A sturdy drawstring makes the haynet straightforward to fill, close and secure.

Once filled, it can be hung in an appropriate position in the stable or other suitable feeding area.

Ideal For

• Horses that eat forage quickly.
• Everyday stable feeding.
• Extending forage feeding time.
• Reducing hay waste.
• Horses and ponies.
• Overnight hay feeding.
• Travelling.
• Shows and competitions.
• Stable yards.
• Horses that benefit from smaller, more frequent mouthfuls of forage.

How to Use

Fill the haynet with the horse's normal forage ration, secure the drawstring and hang it from a strong, suitable attachment point.

Ensure the haynet is positioned appropriately so that it does not create an unnecessary entanglement risk as it empties.

Introduce small-hole haynets gradually to horses that have not previously used one and make sure the horse can comfortably access sufficient forage.

Safety Information

Haynets should always be securely attached and positioned with horse safety in mind.

Regularly inspect the netting and drawstring for damage or excessive wear. Replace damaged haynets rather than continuing to use them.

The appropriate feeding height and attachment method will depend on the horse and environment. Particular care should be taken around shod horses and situations where a hoof could become caught in a low-hanging or empty net.

A slow feeder should regulate access to forage rather than unnecessarily restrict the horse's total forage intake. Feeding quantities should be appropriate for the individual horse's nutritional requirements.
