The Shires Greedy Feeder Hay Net combines a 39-inch medium-size design with 1.25-inch mesh openings to slow forage consumption, extend feeding time, and help reduce waste.
Small-Mesh Slow Feeding
The Greedy Feeder features very small mesh openings that allow forage to be pulled from the net gradually. This encourages horses to take smaller amounts at a time, extending the overall feeding period.
Helps Reduce Forage Waste
The smaller openings help limit the amount of hay or haylage that can be pulled from the net at once. This can help reduce the amount of forage dropped and wasted on the stable floor.
Extended Stable Activity
By making forage last longer, the Greedy Feeder provides horses with additional feeding activity during stall time, helping reduce periods of boredom and inactivity.
