✅ Key Benefits

• Built strong: heavy-duty mesh supports thicker haylage and frequent use, reducing wear and tear.

• Two size options (36″ & 45″) give flexibility — smaller for single-horse use, larger for group turnout or higher-consumption animals.

• Promotes slower, healthier grazing behaviour which supports digestion and reduces waste.

• Suitable for stable or field use when hung safely; helps keep feeding area neat and tidy.

• Made by Shires, so benefits from known brand reliability and accessory compatibility.

📊 Specifications

• Size Options: 36″ (~91 cm) and 45″ (~114 cm) diameter.

• Material: Heavy-duty net mesh, designed for haylage (which is typically bulkier than dry hay).

• Design: Slow-feed net format; reinforces chewing time, reduces the rate of consumption and feed drop-out.

• Intended For: Horses and ponies on haylage diets, turnout feeding, slow-feed programmes or where waste reduction and digestion support are priorities.

🪣 Usage & Care Guide

• Select the size based on horse’s bodyweight, feeding rate, turnout regime and haylage stickiness.

• Hang the net at safe height for your horse/pony to eat comfortably and access forage without risk of entanglement.

• Fill with appropriate quantity of haylage — ensure the net capacity matches the horse’s allowance.

• Regularly inspect the mesh for damage, frayed edges or stretched holes. Replace if compromised.

• Clean net if used in field situations: shake out hay bits, rinse if needed and dry before storage.

• When not in use, store in a dry location, away from direct UV exposure to prolong lifespan.
