When you secure the draw string, be sure that the excess is tied back up inside the netting, making sure it wont come loose and risk becoming tangled around your animals legs. We suggest leaving one string on the bale uncut, towards the bottom of the bale. Given these bales can be 500-700kgs, it can help support the net until some of the bulk of the hay has been eaten down. Then cut and remove the string.

*All round bale nets come with a complimentary patch kit. Unfortunately, sometimes accidents can happen. Should your net be damaged in any way for any reason, we have provided this patch kit for instant repair.

*Benefits of using slow feed hay nets include – Reduce hay wastage, slowed hay consumption, simulate grazin’. Continuous slow feeding helps reduce the chance of colic, choke, stomach ulcers, decrease’s boredom and may improve stable vices.

Netting hole sizes

3cm Netting
Is your horse a pro at using a slow feeder? Do you find the traditional 4cm netting is just not quite small enough? Do you have laminitic ponies, own mini’s or feed out top quality leafy hay?
3cm x 3cm netting is recommended for animals who are experienced with using slow feed hay nets. Also great for use with mini’s, goats, sheep etc. This size netting is best used with high quality leafy hay, the type of hay your horse/animals usually eat fast. Be mindful though, that some horses may be frustrated by this size if they aren’t conditioned to using a slow feed hay net. Others are happy to graze from the net straight away with no worries. Our 3cm netting range is available in 48ply netting, black in colour.

4cm Netting
Are you looking for a hay net to slow down consumption? Do you feed good quality hay and want to reduce the waste?
4cm x 4cm is the traditional netting size most commonly used for slow feeding hay. This is our most popular netting as its a good general purpose netting size suitable for the majority of hay types. The perfect size for reducing hay waste as well as slowing consumption when using good quality hay. All of our 4cm nets are made with a robust 60ply netting, green in colour.

6cm Netting
Are you sick and tired of your hay being spread around and wasted?
6cm x 6cm netting is ideal for those who mainly want to stop their horses wasting so much hay. It does slow consumption, but not as much as 3cm or 4cm netting. Suited to all types of hay. including hay of lower quality & cereal hays. This size is also a great choice for old or retired horses, it wont restrict their forage intake too much, but will save you $ on waste. All of our 6cm netting is a robust 60ply netting, black in colour.
NOTE: Prior to use, be sure your horses hooves are larger than the size of the netting. 6cm netting is not recommended for foals or mini’s due to their small feet. If using with small footed animals, you must ensure their feet cannot access the net as there is a chance they may become tangled. Please read our FAQ’s for ideas on using slow feed hay nets with shod/small footed animals.

*Horses/livestock must be free of buckled halters and rugs when using slow feed hay nets. If your horse is shod, the net must be hung out of reach of hooves. Otherwise be contained in some way their hooves cannot access the netting. For more information on easy to use net containment ideas, visit our FAQ page. Horned livestock should not use slow feed hay nets. As they may become caught up in the netting and injured or their horns may damage the netting.
