Product Information
Full details
The KM Elite Deluxe Haynet is an ideal feeding solution for horse owners looking to improve their equine's digestive health and reduce forage waste. Designed for daily use in stables, horseboxes, trailers, and fields, this 40-inch net promotes a natural grazing pace to prevent horses from gorging. While it is highly durable and holds a generous 6.5kg of hay, owners should note that the 2-inch hole size is best suited for horses already accustomed to slow-feeding systems.

Is the 2-inch hole size safe for all horses?
The 2-inch mesh is a standard size for slow feeding, but you should always monitor your horse to ensure they are comfortable with this hole size.
Can I use this haynet for outdoor turnouts?
Yes, the durability of the handcrafted material makes it suitable for fields and paddocks when hung properly.
What is the length of the net?
The KM Elite Deluxe Haynet measures 40 inches in length.
How do I clean the haynet?
You can shake out debris regularly and wash with clean water and air dry if it becomes dirty.
Troubleshooting
Horse is struggling to extract hay from the net
Ensure the hay is packed loosely rather than tightly compressed to make the initial extraction easier for the horse.
Haynet is swinging too much during feeding
Use the bottom ring to tie the net down to a secondary anchor point, keeping it stable against the wall.
Visible wear on the netting mesh
Check if the net is hanging against a rough surface or sharp edge and reposition to a smooth mounting point.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your KM Elite Deluxe Haynet, use the top rings to hang the net from a secure, solid fixture in your stable or trailer. Ensure the knot or tie-back mechanism at the bottom is secured to a wall ring to keep the net from swinging excessively.
Compatibility: The net is compatible with standard hay types, including meadow hay and alfalfa.
Care Instructions: Regularly inspect the net for any signs of wear or loose strands caused by sharp teeth or hardware. Shake out debris or dust between refills to maintain hygiene. If the net becomes excessively soiled, it can be soaked in clean water and air-dried to keep the material fresh.
