Forage is the main component of a healthy diet for horses. Here are hay accessories for horses to make feeding easier.
Putting safety first, the spacing prevents horses from getting stuck in the feeder, and the smooth round top ring prevents excessive rubbing of the bristles. The design of the loop legs will not sink into the soft surface. The feeder can also prevent waste with hay protection panels and is designed to withstand the harshest outdoor environments. $349.99; www.ruralking.com
Haygain steamer is designed to kill molds, fungal spores, yeast and bacteria commonly found in hay, creating a delicious meal, improving digestibility and nutrition. The Haygain HG600 steamer also triples the moisture content of hay to increase moisture. Steaming can reduce the dust in the air by nearly 98% and reduce the horse's susceptibility to inflammatory airway diseases by 65%. US$1,749.00; www.haygain.us
