Square, not diamond holes
The beauty of our hay nets from a feeding perspective as a square pattern means that no matter how full or empty the net is, the horses can still access the hay. Whereas, the diamond hole pattern hay nets collapse down on themselves as the net empties meaning the net becomes harder to eat from as the net empties… which could possibly be frustrating your horses and leading to more aggressive eating and therefore destroying of hay nets quicker than normal life expectancy.

Large hay nets:
These take a full small bale of hay, however, for the reason mentioned above, if you only put one biscuit of hay in the net, the horses will still be able to eat from the net just fine as the holes don't collapse down on each other.

This then gives you the flexibility to feed anywhere from 1 biscuit/flake of hay, up to a full small bale of hay.

The other benefit of the Larges is that they have a super wide mouth on them that allows easy filling. If you only have access to round bales, or Large Square 8x3x4 bales of hay, but you don't want to put that quantity of hay out, then our larges will enable easy filling of chunks of hay, so you can still have full control on how much you wish to put out.

Please note, our Hay Savers are not available in NZ due to the hideous shipping costs.

Round Bale nets and small square bales

Another great way to put out a bulk amount of hay in a drought or feed shortage is to use small bales of hay in a round bale hay net.

As a guide only:
* a 3x4 should take 4 to 5 small bales
* a 4x4 should take 6 to 8 small bales
* a 5x4 should take 8 to 10 small bales, and
* a 6x4 should take 10 to 12+ small bales of hay.
We have done this ourselves in the past on numerous occasions and it has worked very well. Putting out a bulk amount of hay is great for reducing feed times, and ensuring your horses are happy and healthy in mind and body by always having a hay supply available.

Many customers note that their herds are happier when they have a constant supply of hay and are less aggressive to their paddock mates.

Large Square 8x4x4 / 8x4x3 & 8x3x3 Bales
If you want a hay net that offers flexibility to fit ALL sizes of round bales PLUS the Large Square 8x4x4 down to 8x3x3 bales of hay, then purchasing one of our Large Square Bales is a great idea. This means you have a net that will fit anything. Conversely, the 6x4 round bale, will also fit onto the Large Square Bales, as pictured above.

Yes, you will potentially have excess netting if the bale is significantly smaller than the net, however, we have simple instructions on how to reduce the size of the net, or 'take up the slack'. This link will show you how to take up the slack. https://bit.ly/3ZoIt96

Consideration does need to be made if your horses are shod. In that case, having a metal ring, or low gates, or some sort of physical barrier between the nets and shod hooves is very important. You would also have to make sure that excess netting is able to be dealt with if your hay net is much larger than the hay source being used.

Round Bale Hay Nets

In a drought, these can become a godsend by allowing versatility of use with not only round bales, but also small bales of hay. A common question we get asked is 'What size round bale hay net should I purchase?'

One of my first responses to this question, is "What will happen to your hay supply in a drought and do you want a hay net that offers versatility?"

Will you be able to get the size you normally do, or do you need a hay net with more flexibility in size? For example, if you only ever purchase 4x4 round bales, but you hit a drought situation and your hay can only come from interstate, and these bales might be 5x4's, then you would be better off purchasing a 5x4 net put on both 5x4 and 4x4 bale sizes.

Yes, you will end up with extra netting, however you can easily take up the slack by reading page 2 of this link. https://bit.ly/3ZoIt96
