Frequently Asked Questions
Which sizes and mesh variants does the Shires Soft Mesh Haylage Net come in?
The net is available in five variants: 30 Inch/1 Inch Hole (762mm), 40 Inch/1 Inch Hole (1016mm), 40 Inch/1.5 Inch Hole (1016mm), 40 Inch/2 Inch Hole (1016mm), and 50 Inch/1 Inch Hole (1270mm). The 30" and 50" nets come with 1" mesh only, while the 40" net offers a choice of 1", 1.5", or 2" mesh.
How much hay does each size hold?
The 30" (76cm) net holds approximately 4kg, the 40" (102cm) net holds approximately 6kg, and the 50" (127cm) net holds approximately 9.5kg.
Why is the Shires Soft Mesh Haylage Net described as knotless, and why does that matter?
The net is made from soft woven nylon without traditional knots, which means it is gentler on your horse's muzzle compared to standard knotted haynets. This is particularly beneficial for horses that feed enthusiastically or have sensitive skin around the nose.
Which mesh size should I choose for the 40" net?
The 40" net is available with 1" (2.5cm), 1.5" (4cm), or 2" (5cm) mesh. A smaller mesh slows feeding further and reduces waste, while a larger mesh allows slightly faster access. Choose based on your horse's appetite and how much you want to extend feeding time.
Is this haynet suitable for use in both the stable and the paddock?
Yes, the Shires Soft Mesh Haylage Net is described as ideal for everyday use in the stable or paddock.
