Why order a custom bag-shaped hay net?

It is the ideal alternative if our standard sizes do not meet your specific needs
You can choose the mesh size as well as the width and height down to the centimeter. Enjoy a net that perfectly fits your needs!

Nets are made with full mesh sizes, which may create a 1 to 3 cm variation in length and width. Full-mesh manufacturing provides better strength.

What is the capacity of a hay bag?

The capacity of a bag-shaped hay net depends on its size and the type of hay it contains.

Type of hay	Calculation method	Example for a 2 x 1.5 m net
Loose hay	Net height (m) x Net width (m) x 7.5 = Number of kg of hay	2 x 1.5 x 7.5 = 22.5 kg
Compressed hay	Net height (m) x Net width (m) x 10 = Number of kg of hay	2 x 1.5 x 10 = 30 kg

Which mesh size should you choose?

Mesh choice may vary depending on net shape, hay compression, and fiber length.

In a bag-shaped net, hay is generally loose
In a round bale net, hay is compressed

The slowdown of intake also depends on hay compression and fiber length:

- Hay compression: compressed hay is harder to grab than loose hay
- Fiber length: short-stem hay is harder to grab than long-stem hay

How to close my net?

Your bag-shaped hay net is supplied with its closing rope.

For quick and efficient opening and closing, you can use the flat snap hooks with eye, which will not injure the horses’ gums or damage the net. Two sizes are available.

Usage tips:

Hang the net high enough to prevent the horse from stepping on it and getting a hoof caught.
Make sure the horse can eat in its natural position, with its head down.
If the net is suspended, ensure the angle is natural and the net is not rubbing against a rough surface.

How do I wash my net?

The net can be cleaned in several ways:

Rinse with a garden hose
Wash in a home washing machine or laundromat
Soak for several hours in a bathtub or large container

The smaller the mesh, the slower the hay is taken in.

Mesh size (outer)		Purpose
100 mm	Very large mes	Limit hay waste, familiarisation with the net
60 mm	Large mesh	Consumption slows down, transition to slow feeding
45 mm	Small mesh	Introduction to slow feeding
35 mm	Very small mesh	Slow feeding intensification
Note: The size expressed is that of the outer mesh. To calculate the inner mesh, you must subtract 10mm.

The slow down of ingestion also depends on the level of hay compression and the length of the stalks.

For the same mesh, the distribution of hay will be different in a bag net and a round ball net.

In a net bag, usually hay is loose
In a round ball net, hay is compressed

- Hay compaction: hay compressed in a haystack will be harder to catch than hay loose in a bag

- Length of the strands: hay with short strand is more difficult to catch than hay with long strand

Tips :

- If your horses cannot all eat with the mesh installed, you can arrange several different mesh nets.

- Our bag nets are also available in double mesh with different size of mesh on each side.

If this is the first time you have put hay in a net and your horse is not used to it, he may be frustrated and can get angry. We advise you to gently accustom your horse to limit his frustration.

- Ruffle the hay out of the tufts of the mesh and leave some loose hay next to the nets.

- Choose a wide mesh net (60mm, 100mm) to promote a smooth transition.

Despite all the care taken in manufacturing, the net is a textile product that can be damaged by installation or use.

To repair the hole of your hay net, you can sew your stitches with a sharp needle of 1mm maximum and linen string of 0.3mm.
