Which hole size is suitable for my horse? 40mm / 1 ¾" Sized Holes - Moderate
Our most popular hole-sized net, the 40mm is a good place to start if you are unsure or new to slow feeding.
Our most popular hole size, 40mm / 1 ¾" it is the ideal starting point if you’re new to slow feeding or unsure where to begin. It delivers genuine slow feeding, enough restriction to extend eating time and reduce waste without tipping into frustration. In our experience, it’s readily accepted by 90% of horses of horses once introduced correctly. Good for slightly stalky hay, where you don't wish to slow down too much but still reap the rewards of hay saving and increasing the longevity of the hay you are feeding out. 30mm / 1 ¼" Sized Holes - Decelerator
This hole size is great for ponies, mini’s and horses that are very voracious eaters. Recommended for horses that have already used a 40mm / 1 ¾" hay net hole size, who therefore understand what slow feed hay nets are about, but need slowing down a little more.
These 30mm / 1 ¼" sized holes are recommended for really gutzy horses or livestock, ponies, or for very palatable hay (not stalky). Lucerne is good hay to feed in 30mm / 1 ¼" nets if you are worried about the consumption rate. Higher sugar and therefore more palatable finer hays are also a good choice for this size.
