  • Feeding horses can be a lot of work and trouble depending on the environment and circumstances the horse and/or the owner is under. There is a growing consensus that horses should have hay around them 24/7 so as to never run out. As this opinion has grown, so have hay bag companies and the demand for different sizes and different size holes for the hay bags.
    To meet this demand there are a wide range of companies out there offering all kinds of things. We feel like we've seen a lot of them and know what to look for and why. So... this video is a long talk about hay bags and an in depth review of a few brands of hay bags and why buying quality ones are worth it.
    If you are just looking for my recommendation and don't want to listen to the whole set of reasons for hay bags and why the competition isn't any good, just skip to the 17 minute mark and you'll see my recommendation. I'm pretty sure they're the only company that makes green hay bags, so it should be pretty obvious :) That is if you know your hay bags of course.
    I hope this video is informative as it's packed with all kinds of information regarding hay bags and feeding horses in general. Thanks for watching!

    20th March 2022. This is a super informative and helpful video. I'm watching your videos from way back to learn about horse health, safety, care, etc. You are a great teacher my friend. Thanks a lot for sharing. Cheers from Silvana from South America Uruguay 🇺🇾

    I would have been super pleased if you had named names. I'm always looking for a better nibble net I appreciate you mentioning Nag bags I will check that out, been feeding my horses with hay nets ,1 inch holes, for years. They all got used to it they gained weight at first and then gradually when they realized the food would always be there they just ate when they really felt like it. It is work getting hay out of 1 inch holes. Thanks for posting the video.

      Well... just imagine every single other company isn't very good. The ONLY company so far that I've tried (and I've tried a lot) is Nagbag that creates a good quality hay bag.

    Thanks for making this video. I was looking at hay nets / bags and the Nag Bag seems like they will fit the bill.

    Good Morning, you answered my question on your newest video about the Nag Bag Hay Net, which lead me to this video 😆. I truly love your channel. I always watch your new videos and I leave your channel running in the background when I clean house because your videos are so calming. I have another question, Do you have any teeth wear or gum problems with the hay nets?
    I think there were a lot of issues with that in the past, before I had my horses. I’ll be buying the large 4x4x8 square bale net from nag. Thank you so much.

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  2 роки тому +1

      thank you very much! That sounds wonderful and it's just great that being with the horses is calming. I haven't seen any extra wear on the teeth so far and my vet hasn't mentioned anything in that regards.

    Very informative thanks for that could I ask how many hours that high quality green bag will last

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Рік тому +1

      Depends on the size of bag, speed of horse, type of hay and how full it is... but, overall maybe 4 to 8 hours

    Graeme, when hanging a hay bag should it be against some sort of solid backstop (i.e. wall, fence, or tree trunk) or is it OK to just hang in the open?

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  3 роки тому +2

      It's ok to hang it but it's usually harder for the horses. You also want to be cautious of them getting tangled in it at all

    sounds like your in canada(and i dont know if this brand ships outside the US) but have you tried Haychix nets? they sound like their strong and superb quality nets...i've not tried them as i dont have horses(have goats though) but lots of people seem to praise the Haychix nets

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  3 роки тому

      thanks for the suggestion! I have never tried them but have heard a couple of people say positive things. If I ever have the chance to try them I'll be sure to make a video

    Can you not make a hay feeder from wood or i seen some videos where they cut down a IBC and use that Or them blue barrels you got in video cut in half

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  6 років тому

      Excellent questions! Yes, those are all possible but depending on the horse they can get destroyed really quickly. When we consider safety and reliability, just the hay bag is the best if it's going to be something derived from a hay bag. I think I may have just realized another video idea... "All the things wrong with slow feeders". It's a hard nut to crack but I do have an idea. When I make it and test it, I'll showcase it. Hopefully soonish..
