Livestock Round Bale Hay Net - 3" Holes
Overview
Picture spending less time feeding and more time doing what you love. Think about how much you spend on hay and cut that number in half. Reduce waste and save time with our round bale feeder.
The Texas Haynet Livestock Net is the perfect addition to your waste management program. Designed with cattle in mind, this hay net minimizes waste without slowing down intake. Bigger holes allow for easy access to forage while preventing livestock from squandering valuable hay.
Special needs horses, like the blind or seniors with dental issues, are also good candidates for large 3" holes. A larger hole makes feeding time much easier for them and ensures they are able to get enough.
Horses facing harsh winter conditions may also benefit from larger holes. As calorie requirements increase during extreme temperatures, you want to make access as easy as possible. Smaller holes may add additional stress by creating frustration.
The net is lightweight and easy to install - no heavy equipment required.
*Use caution with horned animals and animals with ear tags. Use caution with shod animals. We recommend using a round bale feeder with a solid barrier between the shoe and the net (pictured and sold separately). Use caution with small hooves when using nets with holes larger than 1.75".

United StatesReduces waste, Solid construction
My cows have had access to their haynet for a couple weeks now and neither them not I have any complaints. The net is made moderately heavy-gauge material and seems like it should stand up to the abuse my cattle will put on it. There seems to be nearly zero wasted hay dropped onto the ground and stepped into the soil. I would 100% recommend this product for cattle who waste a lot of hay.
United StatesGreat for older horses
Bought the larger opening for our 3 20+ year old horses. They love it. No more pitching hay into a feeder in the wind. No more waste when I have a big round bale in a feeder. Love it.
United StatesGreat customer service!
