FLUFFY FEEDER, standard net hole size

Enrichment and slow feeder for horses. Can be used in stall or outdoor in the paddock. Can be filled about 3 kg of hay in it. Fluffy Feeder is specially designed to enrich horses environment and to support the forage feeding. Heica® feeders are manufactured in Finland and are made of eco-friendly materials.

The net hole size is about 6 cm.

Fluffy Feeder helps to slow down the eating, extend the eating time and simulate grazing. Simply fill the feeder with hay, secure it with three large buttons, and present it to the horse for their enjoyment. Fluffy Feeder is soft and quiet in use, and easy to clean. Just rinse with water and let it dry. Can be machine washed in 40 degrees.

To choose the correct net hole size, please refer to the table at the bottom of this page. If your goal is simply to enrich the horse’s environment rather than slow down eating, we recommend this standard net hole size.

Why to choose Fluffy Feeder?

• natural grazing position
• safe to use
• durable
• fabrics are water and dirt repellent
• less wasted hay
• easy to use and fast to fill
• quiet in use
• eco friendly materials
• manufactured responsibly

The materials used in Fluffy Feeders are designed to repel water and dirt, effectively keeping the hay clean from bedding and soil. The net is made of seat belts from car industry, making it exceptionally unique and durable. The net hole size cannot be compared to other slow feeders on the market. It is typically more difficult for the horse to use. A standard net hole size of 6 cm is suitable for dry hay or haylage, especially when dealing with short hay or thick straws.

The color of the net can vary.

Diameter of the slow feeder is 63cm.

The product can be damaged by the equine and it should be checked before each use.

We recommend providing hay freely alongside the Fluffy Feeder, allowing the horse the flexibility to choose where to eat. Many horses tend to start eating first from the feeder rather than the free hay next to them.

The table below helps you choose the right mesh size for a hay net. Please note that this is a general recommendation, and the ideal mesh size may vary depending on your horse's individual needs.

Customer feedback:

"The hay pillow is just what I wanted,  it can even withstand a full destroyer test!" -Jenna

"The hay pillow has been used by a warmblood horse. It’s placed in the stall with the evening hay to help extend feeding time. This horse previously had a regular hay net, but it ate so unevenly from it that we had to get veterinary treatment when its neck got badly strained. With the pillow, there haven’t been any similar issues." -Janette

"We arrived at a completely unfamiliar stable for the photoshoot, and the pony was quite nervous. I put a hay pillow in the stall, and it calmed down immediately, feeling right at home. I don't know if the photoshoot would have gone worse without the hay pillow. It clearly helped my pony relax from the very beginning!"

"I really like those pillows; it’s so easy to just toss them into the paddock."

”We saw the Heica feeders first time in horse fair and they seemed to be really interesting. We decided to try them for the whole stable (horses and ponies). We give part of the night hays from the feeders to extend the eating time. Some of the horses just love them and tehy start eating first from the feeders even though there is loose hay available. The service is good adn the horses and ponies are happy.”

"I had been looking for a hay feeder to use as enrichment for my gelding, Rascal, when I found Heica’s Fluffy Feeder on Instagram. It’s perfect to use in his stall when the weather keeps him inside, but he also loves to have it in his pasture. The size is perfect, it’s not too large. It has held up well to Rascal’s vigorous pawing and shaking. Rascal loves the Fluffy Feeder, he almost always chooses to eat from it before eating from his loose hay or netted hay. Everyone at the barn has noticed how much he prefers it! I love that it’s providing him enrichment and allowing him to forage.” -KaeDee

My horses absolutely LOVED it. I was also surprised with the quality and how user friendly it is. -Paardendroom
