I have been using the 1.25” net with my 2 hay baskets for the past 6 months with great success! The net has held up beautifully with my 3 hungry horses. I have been able to go down to 2 feedings a day because it takes them 6-7 hours to eat their hay per feeding. The whole net system is well made and super easy to fill and close up.

Fits great on our Tarter Equine Hay Basket, very thick and easy to put on and take off.

I’m so happy I found this! I’ve been making my own slow feed hay nets to use with our Tarter Equine Hay Basket. This is so much easier! And, it’s definitely a quality product. Hope our 3 Gypsy Vanner boys can’t chew a hole in this as fast as they do the ones I’ve been making…. LOL

Not sure what to do with the excess netting…still figuring it out.
laurie (store manager) –
the netting needs to be able to reach the bottom of the basket to ensure the horses can reach it all- the “extra” netting when the basket is full just “floats” on top, as the horses eat the hay down the netting falls down into the basket.

Great product!!! Only had this for a couple of days but love it so far. I have a 25 year old Paso Fino that is overweight along with a 10 year old rescue horse that is on his way to being overweight. Both horses had no problem figuring things out and are now eating alot slower. Hay is lasting several hours longer now. Will purchase another one when needed. Once more …. Great product !!!

I’ve had another brand of hay basket cover. It fell apart quickly. This Hay Burners net is going to last forever! It’s really rugged, but very soft and pliable. It’s sooo easy to install and use!! I LOVE IT!! My horses love it too!

First ordered remnants and REALLY liked the quality of this netting. Experimenting with slow feeding and ways to successfully integrate a new youngster in with an older herd. My new hay basket with HAYBURNERS net is going to be a big part of my solution. They are learning to share and my youngster has access to hay all day. No more getting pushed away by the bigger horses. Love the quality, love your products! Thank you!!
