3 String bale bags, these bags are BIG, they will hold roughly 2.5 standard bales or the large 3 string bales that weigh around 100 pounds (approximate bale size 17″x 25″ x 48″ long)
Paracord pull closure with cord lock comes standard – If you are hanging the net using the pull string, we recommend the rope upgrade.
1/4″ Rope Pull upgrade available (click link) -> Optional Rope Pull for our hay nets
Available in all our stock materials

Please keep in mind the smaller the mesh the more abuse it will take from the horses teeth, this can cause premature wear on the nets if the horse is not picking the hay out but grabbing the net and shaking it or just ripping at the net. THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR CAN SUBSTANTIUALLY SHORTEN THE LIFE OF YOUR NET and generally shows the horse is not ready for that small of a hole.
If you have a color preference, please put in the check out notes and we will try to accommodate. If you want ONLY a certain color, please check with us prior to ordering for availability.

Really nice hay bags. The rope is think so the horses won’t destroy it so easily.

Very impressed with delivery and quality.

I have been feeding my 2 horses by the bale for several years using these hay bags. I only have to feed every 36 to 48 hours, which is great! I bought my bags in 2018 and they are worn but still in great shape. The horses have not yet bit through any of the cords or otherwise damaged them, even though the bags are outside and subjected to all weather.

Very high quality product, and quick shipping.

My comment is that I was doing research because I don’t know what is the best product in Hay Bag feeders and I see other companies but not yours and my results are that your product is far superior than the competitors. I’m excited to try Hayburners Hay Bags!

My whole barn uses these nets. Love them!

My whole barn has these nets and we love them. I will say that I wish the nets with smaller holes came in the super heavy duty material. I have one mare that has figured out how to destroy her net. But, I will keep buying them anyway.

Nothing better than a Hay Burners bag!! No knots, less waste and the bags last for years! I’ll never buy a different brand of hay bag again!
Barbara Hinman (verified owner) –
Bags are quite large and a real value. Very well made.
Shannen (verified owner) –
Love this hay net! Very strong, it stands up to my aggressive eater no problem and you can’t beat the price for the exceptional quality.

These 3-string nets are super easy to put on, soft and durable. Love them!
Judi B. (verified owner) –
Love this bag! It is my third one, my previous two are smaller. My previous ones are still in excellent condition and I plan to order another in this size. Sure makes my life easier with four horses and saves so much waste. The quality of these bags is excellent.
Olivia (verified owner) –
I love these bags! The material is great. Durable and soft on the gums/ teeth. More importantly my horses like them!!! And the customer service was awesome to boot. Super impressed with the company and product!! Thanks hay burners, appreciate you!
Shannen (verified owner) –
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these hay nets! They are soft but super strong and without knots to scrape my horses gums and muzzle. I put a whole bale of grass hay in it, put the bale in a commercial vegetable bin and my horses can graze as they feel the need to so their bellies always have feed in them. I use a one inch because my Friesan draft is an easy keeper on top of being a chow hound and it’s the perfect size for him. Plus the customer service is awesome! I have bugged her and she has answered all of my questions and is always very nice.

These don’t seem to be as heavy-duty as the bags we bought before.
laurie (store manager) –
I am sorry to hear you feel this way about the 3/4″ material – this is the same material we have used for several years now and its made to the same break strength as the original 3/4″ we had several years ago, its a different manufacturer and a different type of knitting machine. This “weave” style is actually stronger than the original weave style which was flatter and thinner
Henriette (verified owner) –
I purchased a smaller 2 string bag a while ago and sadly after the warranty expired, my horses made a hole in the net.
I talked to the company and even though it was too late for normal warranty, they sent me a replacement! Amazing service, really appreciate it.

Love them,

I have been buying hay nets from Hay Burner for over a decade and those old nets are still in service! Just bought 2 more. Never been disappointed and they outlast the competition. My horses always have hay available and it contributes to their mental health.

Good value. The mesh isn’t quite as robust as some other brands, so it stretches a little bit. I’d just size down one size hole net, to accommodate that.
Kara (verified owner) –
Love these so far! My horses have adjusted to the sizes I got for each of them. Very happy!
Lynett (verified owner) –
Excellent quality at an affordable price! I’d buy again.
Carrie (verified owner) –
Have tried several different 3 string hay bale bags, Hay Burners’ bags are the best I have used. The netting is soft, yet durable. The size and shape make filling the bags with 100+lb. hay bales easy. I highly recommend.

Good nets
Heather (verified owner) –
I love all of my Hay Burner hay nets. The quality is amazing and they last for a very long time. I have bags that are going on 8 years and I have not had to do any repairs. My drafts are very rough on them too. Highly recommend Hay Burner for all your net needs.
Briana (verified owner) –
Huge hay net! It does stretch, so take that into account when ordering. I have used nets for many, many years. This is by far the strongest, but softest net I’ve used. Easy for the horses to use, but strong to withstand the abuse from my very aggressive eaters. Already looking to buy another to replace a different brand.
DAWN (verified owner) –
Thank you for making a great product
Tracy M. (verified owner) –
Excellent quality. Great customer service and prompt shipping. I bought the .75 size so my mare can graze slowly. The bag size is large enough to easily slide over the whole bale. I wish now I’d also bought the smaller grazing bag for when I want to add in a different type of hay for food diversity, because the ones at the local shop just don’t compare to the quality of this. Highly recommend.
Jake Zanocco (verified owner) –
Have been using both hay net and bale net for a month. Feeding yearlings, mares and stallion. There is very little wasted hay left. Feeding both grass hay and oat hay. Before netting the hay . There was easily 40 % of spoiled that was pulled out of hay basket. Now only a few handful are left. Besides being very user friendly. Our horses prefer eating from the nets over free access to same hay!
Nancy Doolittle (verified owner) –
Whoever designed these bags is a genius! Don’t know what to do with all the time I have now. I was feeding my horses 4 X day and now every six days. They are happy with access to hay 24/7 and I am happy knowing that they have it! Also not worried that eating thru the net is hurting their teeth as the rope is so soft. Thank You “Hayburners”.
Cynthia (verified owner) –
This was a second purchase after getting the half bale size, we wanted a full bale version. The nets have held up amazing well in the pasture environment. They are just lose and get kicked and carried around with no problem. They are good as new after many months. Our horses do not have shoes so might not do this with a shod horse but no problems for us so far. Excellent product.

This is a very well-built hay net and has survived my very enthusiastic geldings. I should have ordered a smaller hole size. They horses are going through the hay very quickly.

Have been using these nets for years and the quality has actually improved significantly over my earlier nets. Softer, more durable, and more spacious! Can’t say enough great things about the nets!
Danielle L. (verified owner) –
I absolutely love this big net! This is my third time purchasing nets from Hay Burners, and I am always impressed with the quality and price!
Julia B. (verified owner) –
Added yet another of your awesome nets to my collection. Even my most aggressive eaters haven’t yet destroyed a single net. Can’t say that for other company’s nets. Thank you for making such a great & safe product. 1.75” for most my horses. 2.25” for my large gelding and 3” for my skinny senior who is take it or leave it when it comes to food.
