For photos and instructions see our Mounting and Hanging page How to Clean - Washing Instructions If you prefer to anchor or attach a slow feed product, purchase the Hanging Hay Pillow (to hang) or Day or Bale Nets, which can be used loose on the ground, attached at ground level (for barefoot individuals), hung or secured in a tub/trough (for shod and barefoot horses). The tabs are intended to hang the bags on a hook to dry or for storage. The bags are designed to be used loose on the ground. We do not recommend hanging or attaching the Standard Hay Pillow® while in use - the solid back and border prevents most horses from being able to manipulate the hay properly or empty the bag completely resulting in frustration. Your horse cannot tug or pull on it as the Hay Pillow is not attached to anything when used on the ground. The Standard Hay Pillow or Standard Hay Pillow Version II is the best choice for voracious (over eager) eaters. Best Choice for Slowing Down an Over Eager Eater If you experience high winds, and use your Standard Hay Pillows or Mini Hay Pillows on the ground, place a rounded smooth rock about the size of your fist in the bag with the hay for extra ground weight. The solid back design dramatically reduces wasted hay and is ideal in windy weather - or for feeding on sand or snow.

If you have never used a slow feeder, we suggest the 1 ¾ ”. Just ¼” makes a significant difference in rate of consumption. If you have more than one individual in the same enclosure, we recommend at least one slow feed station per herd member.ġ ¼” and 1 ¾” are the most popular mesh sizes.If your horse is shod, consider the Hanging Hay Pillow (to hang) or Day or Bale Nets, which can be hung or secured in a tub/trough (for shod and barefoot horses).We do not recommend use with horned animals or horses with blankets or halters that can potentially become snared in netting. Due to the dangers involved in using any mesh material that can potentially get caught in a horseshoe, this product should not be used by shod livestock.
