This netting will not absorb water, therefore there is no change to the properties of the netting during inclement weather or if used to soak hay and the net itself does not take on the weight of the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy use a GutzBusta®?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur products are designed with large and strong drawstrings to secure the hay net around your round bale. It’s easier to put on compared to other hay nets available in the market. We’ve been making quality hay nets for over 8 years and we know how the netting behaves over time. This is why we developed a size and pattern that works to enable these nets to last longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA GutzBusta® Hay Net decreases wastage by up to 46%. In our situation, a 4x4 round bale of pasture hay can last 3 to 4 horses for 7 to 15 days with a 4cm \/ 1 3\/4\" net, depending on how cold the weather is. This rate was for Winter, however, in Summer, we found that a 4x4 lasted these horses nearly 3 months due to being low sugar\/palatability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information and photos about our hay nets, please visit our\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"https:\/\/help.gutzbusta.com.au\/en-US\" href=\"https:\/\/help.gutzbusta.com.au\/en-US\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-external-message\"\u003eFAQ \u0026amp; Help page.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eCaution:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eShoes: If your horse is shod then simply tie your net up a little higher if it is a smaller net. If you are using a round bale or larger size net, then put your net inside a large box, hay ring or other device that stops their feet from coming into contact with their hay net. Direct contact of shoes and nets is not recommended.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eIt is not recommended to leave buckled halters or other types of buckled headgear on your horse when using ANY type of hay net as your horse may get caught.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eSimilarly, do not let horned animals such as cattle, sheep or goats eat from the nets due to possible entanglement.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eCattle or stock with ear tags are cautioned from eating from the hay nets as they may rub their head and potentially remove the ear tags.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eIt's important to keep in mind that horses wearing rugs might rub against the nets. To reduce the chance of a rug clip getting caught on the netting, make sure your buckles are properly secured and not sticking out, or consider securing the hay net to limit contact between the rug and the net. If rubbing is a concern, you might want to avoid having your horse wear a rug altogether.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GutzBuster","offers":[{"title":"30mm Decelerator","offer_id":43702879813766,"sku":null,"price":43.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"40mm Moderate","offer_id":43702879846534,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60mm Free \u0026 Easy","offer_id":43702879879302,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1039\/0584\/files\/Small3cmKnotted.jpg?v=1773218928","url":"https:\/\/saddlerybarn.co.nz\/products\/gutzbuster-knotted-hay-nets-small","provider":"Saddlery Barn ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
