Hay Net Filler: The Ingenious Filling Aid for the Stable

Save time and nerves when stuffing hay daily. Discover practical hay net fillers for wall mounting or freestanding models for effortless filling.

Hay Net Fillers: Put an End to the Frustration of Stuffing Hay

Every horse owner knows it: filling hay nets daily can quickly become a nerve-wracking test of patience. The net collapses, the hay gets caught in the meshes, and in the end, half of the ration is scattered on the stable floor. A hay net filler puts an end to this chaos. As a practical holder, it stretches the net wide open so that you can fill in the hay effortlessly, quickly, and crumb-free with a pitchfork. This ingenious stable accessory saves you valuable time every day, spares your nerves, and ensures a tidy workspace in the feed room.

Wall Ring or Freestanding Filler?

There are different systems to hold the hay net open. A wall ring (filling ring) is screwed firmly to the wall of the feed room. The empty net is simply slipped over the metal ring and then hangs like an open sack ready to be filled. Freestanding hay net fillers or stands can be placed exactly where you need them – right next to the hay bale. They are ideal if you have no free walls available or want to fill the net outside.

Ergonomic Working at the Stable

Holding the net open with one hand while stuffing it with the other takes its toll on the back in the long run. A hay net filler allows you to work ergonomically with both hands. You can fluff up the hay loosely and distribute it perfectly in the net without having to contort yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every hay net filler fit all nets?
Most hay net rings have a standardized diameter (approx. 40 to 50 cm) over which all common standard hay nets can be easily stretched. However, these filling aids are not intended for extremely large round bale nets.

How high should a wall filling ring be mounted?
Mount the ring at a comfortable working height for you, approximately at belly button level. However, make sure that there is still enough space below so that the hay net can hang freely when filled and does not rest on the floor.

Can nets get damaged when stretched?
No. The edges of professional filling rings and freestanding fillers are rounded and have a smooth finish. The net fabric glides gently over the metal without pulling threads or tearing.

Practical Holders for Hay Nets

Filling hay nets is often one of the least popular tasks in the stable. With a hay net filler, this daily routine becomes child's play.
