@the_long_tim: Replying to @Banana Here’s one of several reasons why my hay nets are at the height they are at. I understand your comment might not have come from a malicious place, but I don’t understand why there is so much hay net slander out there in general when there’s a slew of valid reasons to use them. #horsetok #science #research #controversial #ottb #thoroughbred #equestrian #equestrianproblems #amateur #adultamateur #alfalfa #grass #eventing #dressage #hunter #jumper #english #western #grey #gelding #question #answer #educational #nutrition #happyhorses #care #farmlife #barnlife #horseowner
While that is only partially true vets recommend horses regularly eat off the ground or from lower levels as it is more natural and allows proper draining of the bodies naturally mucus

Also hooves and hay nets don’t mix well 😬

on the ground 😔 it's about how they are made.

The hay net itself isn’t the problem. It’s the height you have it at. For better digestion it should be lower

Not true. Their backs get sore when the hay net is higher.

I’ll always free feed hay on the ground or in a grazer. I’ll prioritize their bodies natural function over my preference.

The problem is different studies show the opposite on pulling. Do what works for your horse and keep them safe

Much safer if they can't catch a leg, too. Ours are at similar height to yours.
