I use a small hole haynet, put in the Hay Cube, with the string out through the drain hole and tied round the handle at the top. My Welsh has worked out every other slow feeder I've tried (and I've tried a few!) this is the only thing that's worked. No more sweeping up spoiled hay!

Mine hasn't worn a SI rug for 2 years now. He was on Piriton every day from Feb/March through to October for a couple of years previously, but now he just has them if he needs them.
