Round Bale Hay Net Slow Feed - Durable Round Bale Feeder for Horses - American Made UV Resistant Nylon Net - Fits Round Bales 4x6-6x6 or Square Bales 3x3x8-4x4x8 with 1.75" Holes

I’ve had this since 2021 (over 4.5 years ago) and it has been great. Sometimes I struggle to put it on but that is because I have to make it go all the way around (including under unlike the pictures) bc my horses will rub it off. I just started throwing it over the top bc I got very large bales and now I am ordering another to put on top with the old one on the bottom. It didn’t have holes until this year and after 4 years of putting new bales out every 1-2.5 weeks, west Texas heat and UV, and 3 horses on it…certainly can’t complain!!!

Alright, if you a reading this, you are looking for a quality round bale haynet, look no further. I have not found a single brand that compares quality wise. I had about 6 horses eating in this thing for a year and not a single hole. I use 5 foot bales. I accidentally left a bale in this hay net over the winter and the bale was rotted and buried in the mud but the hay net was still perfect. I use 5.5x4 foot bales and it closes about perfect on them. They are more on the pricey end, but I have 3 of them now and will never buy another brand. Previously did some large square bales in it and it worked good too, just not as even of a fit. I have used a lot of the other brands and honestly, they just done compare. Long tail, so I normally tuck it under the bale.

I don’t generally feed round bales. They allow the horses to waste a ton, plus the amount of dust they inhale with their heads constantly in them. However, my husband and I are first responders and when Covid hit our community, we knew we would potentially be working 16 hour days. We needed to make sure our horses would be able to still be fed if we couldn’t make it home.So we purchased this hay net and a few round bales.I was worried they would pull the netting off the bale, I didn’t have a lot of faith in the tie at the bottom of the bale. So we put a ratchet step at the bottom of the bale. It wasn’t until the next day did I realise that was unnecessary. Once they start pulling the hay through and the bale loosens and falls down around the netting, there’s so much weight on the bottom that they couldn’t pull the netting off. With that though. The netting is still very stretchy to accommodate more hay flaking loose and adapt to the horses nosing around to get the hay.The second picture is day 3. Day 3!! Look how much is not on the ground!My horses can definitely get impatient with the hay nets, as I have smaller ones that I use for flakes. The cheaper brands have definitely not made it though a week for me, but at the end of 3 weeks on one bale, I could not find one damaged spot.I am impressed and have recommended this net over and over again to friends.We checked the knot towards the end of the bales life and just retighted it once the bale was small enough to get to the knot.I will purchase again if this net ever dies on me.

I was really excited about this net. It was easily put over the round bale and tightened down. But, I used it for 1 round bale and my horses already made their own holes. I’d understand this happening, if it had been used on multiple bales and been in the Texas sun all summer, but not for a couple of weeks I’m February and after only 1 round bale. It’s slightly pricey to be having that happen. Not sure id recommend for that reason.

ZERO STARS!!! Or negative 5 if I could!!! The shape of the net sucks. It will not fully close on any of the round bales I put this onSo there for there is a huge gap on the bottom of the bale. The horses have figured this out and eat it down far enough where they flip it and start pulling hay out , pooping and peeing on the hay they have pulled out. I waste a huge amount of hay. DONT WAST YOUR MONEY. Get one from Hay Chick's. Ya it's more expensive but you definitely get what you pay for. This net says for 6"bales and that's what I feed. I absolutely Hate this net. Wast if money and it's still costing me due to the waste of hay each time I use it .

Love this round bale hay net. It is so easy to get on and secure and The holes are small enough that it slows the horses down from chomping through the hay! Tried three others before I bought this one.

We started feeding round bales and found that without some kind of net, the mess and wasted hay just wasn't worth it. This Texas Haynet isn't the cheapest and isn't the most expensive, but we love it. It is holding up very well and our hay waste has decreased dramatically. Great product, shipped on time, easy to use, and quality is at the high-end range.

We have seven horses. We bought two hay nets this year. It seems to really help as two rolls of hay are lasting about 11-12 days and there is NO waste. However we thought we wouldn’t have to use a hat ring but we still use one because one was pawing at the hay and it was getting hung on her foot. But, the hay ring stopped that. Somehow with this hay net they get every strand of hay and it will be clean as a whistle, you would not even know a hay bale had been there. Used to they would stick their head in the bale and come out with a mouth full now they come out with a few pieces, so it definitely changes how much they get in one bite!I truly believe it will save money in the long run as far as hay cost goes.
