These hay nets are more of a semi-permanent hay net, in that they are best used by mounting along a stable wall, yard or fence rail, or even in between 2 objects like 2 trees. These wall hanging hay nets can be securely mounted in place with the included super strong carabiner clips which are located at the two top ends of the hay net with a short length of rope to assist with tying. They are best utilized by bringing the hay to the net and filling on site.  This can save considerable time, as opposed to going out to the yard or paddock, untying your hay net, bringing it back to the hay shed, filling it, then taking it back to the paddock, yard or stable, to tie up for your animals to eat from.

Although they are capable of holding a full small bale, due to our unique square shaped holes, it doesn’t matter if you have one biscuit of hay in this net, or half a small bale or have the hay net chock full, your animals will still be able to graze from the hay net, unlike diamond shaped holes that collapse down on each other as the hay net empties, leading to frustration for the horse when they get to the end.

Filling your hay net:

Once your wall hanging hay net has been hung and positioned where you would like it using the 2 Carabiners and their attached rope that are including with your order, you simply bring the hay to the hay net, undo the 4 clips that secure the top flap down, open this netting flap up, and then load the hay net with hay. The super wide mouth (1.6m) of this net makes it exceptionally easy to fill.  They are easier to fill if the nets are tied up against a solid object, however still easy enough to fill if hanging between 2 objects. Once complete, you bring the netting flap back over the mouth of the hay net, and secure the 4 clips, making sure your wind up the swivel on the carabiner clips so nothing is left for horses to scratch their noses on.

There is no drawstring to use with these hanging hay nets, just clips, so filling is quick and easy.  The 4 included clips are easy to clip and unclip and because they are a carabiner, you can increase the safely to your horses and livestock by screwing shut the actual clip lever, leaving nothing for delicate noses to get scratched or injured on.
