Wish I’d found these sooner for my ‘very good-doer’ chunky cob. I have both the large and the mini net - both have already lasted a full year with no broken strings and seem just as strong as when I bought them! (No more old nets doubled up or knitted together with baler twine!). He eats less now as it requires effort to tease the hay out, so only eats when he’s actually hungry. Seems to enjoy playing with the net to get hay strands out so keeps him occupied and engaged. Dinner lasts much longer and there’s very little wastage on the ground. Much healthier for him than bolting down hay from the larger-holed nets with half of it ending up in his bedding. You can easily buy replacement rope to tie the nets up with (the only part that ever shows any damage) but the nets themselves are well worth the slightly higher price as they are super-strong and outlast every other haynet I’ve ever bought!
