A HayNet Pick of the Week

Some of you other horsey bloggers out there will probably know of HayNet, but for those of you that don’t it is, in it’s own words, an equine social blogging network. You can put links up to your blog posts or even run another blog from it.

Anyways now that you’ve got a rough idea of what Hay-Net is I was simply going to say that my Mud and Mishaps post has been chosen as a HayNet pick of the week blog post, so I am quite happy with that.

If you aren’t already a member of a HayNet and would like to become one here is a link to the HayNet website.

Sorry about all old photos I haven’t been taking any lately, so I thought I’d just take a look though what I did have.

The Elim-a-Net

I bought these haynets when we were having fatty problems, as the horses had gone on to haylage and it can be quite fatty compared to hay, I wanted the horses to be able to munch away but just not munch it away so fast, so I bought the Elim-a-Net.

The Elim-a-Net comes in three different sizes pony, cob, and horse, I bought pony sized ones. I know Niko and Madeline are horses but pony size is surprisingly big. We still feed from the floor if they are just having a quick meal, and for their night time feed they also have a bit on the floor.

The haynets get damaged quickly but as of yet we have not had one completely destroyed, and as you can see the horses are happy despite the new hay nets, so I think they are pretty good, but if you aren’t having fat problems I would say stick to feeding from the floor. Thank you for your comments on my last post,

Abby, yep luckily I am right handed so it’s not all bad, you really start to notice how much you use your index finger when you can’t use it with out it hurting.

Michelle, am doing pretty good at keeping it clean, I was told that I would need to go back to A and E so maybe they will re dress it I don’t know.
