What is the inspiration behind the PortionPacer™ Haynet?

We know horses are natural trickle feeders but for a variety of reasons, it’s not always possible to know how much they eat or how long their hay lasts them. The PortionPacer™ Haynet solves two problems. The first being that you know approximately how many kilograms each haynet holds, and therefore how much your horse is being offered. The second point is that you know the feed rate in comparison to ad lib floor fed hay, so you can take a decision as to which haynet they may need to manage their weight and if eating times need to be extended. Using this information can help you not only monitor their forage intake, but also reduce the ‘hunger gap’. If horses are left without food for periods of time, it can have negative effects on their mental and physical wellbeing.

Who is the PortionPacer™ Haynet for?

The variety of mesh hole sizes and hay net sizes means there is a PortionPacer™ Haynet for every horse and pony. Here’s a few scenarios:

  • For all horses to know how much they are eating and adjust their diet accordingly (if needed).
  • To extend eating times for overweight horses, or those who eat quickly and are therefore left without hay for long periods of time.
  • For underweight horses to monitor the amount they are eating.
  • For horses that tend to wreck haynets.
  • For horses that like to mess their forage, resulting in waste.

  • Can these haynets be safely tied and then fed from the floor?
    Question asked by Sara Challoner on 26/09/2024 12:16:06
    Hi Sara,

    We would not reccomend feeding these from the floor as this risks getting a hoof stuck in the haynet and potentially causing an accident.
