Square Bale Hay Net
Overview
This slow feed hay net is ideal for feeding an entire square bale. The Texas Haynet Square Bale Net helps prevent colic, founder, and ulcers by slowing down consumption to a natural pace. This bag eliminates clean up and keeps them busy longer. Perfect for the stall or pasture.
Use caution with shod animals. We recommend elevating or placing this net in a solid feeder out of shoe reach. Use caution with horned animals and animals with ear tags.
Create the safest, healthiest, most cost effective feeding solution on the market by pairing this kit with a Tarter Dura Tough Small Animal Feeder. Together, both products eliminate waste and hay clean up. Shop Tarter Dura Tough Small Animal Feeder

FAQ
What Hole Size Should I Buy?
There are several things to consider when choosing a hole size. Here are the basics:
- 95% of animals do well with 1.75" holes.
- For heavy breeds or aggressive eaters we recommend a 2.5" hole or bigger.
- For mini breeds we recommend a 1.5-1" hole.
- For cattle, senior horses with dental/vision issues, or thick stemy hay we recommend a 3" hole.
What Kind of Savings Should I Expect?
You can expect money, time & hay savings. The amount of each varies based on several things, but generally speaking:
- Round bale hay nets waste less than 6% of a bale.
- Round bale nets cost 50% less than other hay feeders.
- Hay nets can cut hay expenses dramatically because fewer bales are needed.
- Spend less time feeding and eliminate time spent cleaning up wasted hay.
- Checkout our hay savings calculator to estimate how much you can save.
How Long Does a Net Last?
This varies based on the type of net, how many animals are using the net and how many days a year you feed hay.
- Round bale nets normally last 2-4 years. Sometimes longer.
- Square bale nets typically last 3+ years.
- Small nets can last 5+ years.
