Shires Heavy Duty Haynet - 40" (102cm) Long, 2.25" (5.5cm) Waste-Reducing Mesh, 6.5kg Capacity

A Tough, Roomy Haynet That Cuts Down on Wasted Hay

Best for: Horse owners looking for a strong, roomy haynet that holds a full fill and keeps more hay off the stable floor.

The Shires Heavy Duty Haynet is the net to reach for when cheap cord nets keep ending up in pieces. Shires rates it as extra strong, and the nylon build is made for everyday use in the stable, the paddock or tied up at the trailer.

The 5.5cm (2.25") holes are sized to reduce wastage, so more of what you put in ends up in your horse instead of trampled into the bedding. At 40" (102cm) long with an approximate 6.5kg capacity, it takes a generous amount of hay in one fill.

Metal rings sit at the bottom and around the top. They keep the opening easier to work with when you fill it and give you a solid point for tying up. Choose from five two-tone colorways, and buy a single net or a 3, 6 or 12 pack when you are filling nets for the whole barn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much hay does this haynet hold?

Shires gives the Heavy Duty Haynet an approximate capacity of 6.5kg. Treat that as a guide, since how much fits depends on how tightly your hay is packed and whether it is loose or in flakes.

Q: How big are the mesh holes?

The holes are 5.5cm (2.25"), with a tolerance of about half a centimeter either way. That size is meant to reduce wasted hay while still letting your horse pull forage through the mesh.

Q: What is the difference between the single net and the packs?

The net is the same in every option. The 3, 6 and 12 packs simply give you several nets in the color you choose, which suits boarding barns or anyone who fills nets ahead for the week.
