Help needed please.
I bought a Shires soft mesh haynet with 1” holes in the 6kg / 40” size.
It seems fine for overnight use but I need another smaller one for evening / grooming / in the horsebox.
All sizes of the Shires nets now seem to be out of stock everywhere. As many threads indicate that Martsnet and Nibbleze sizes are smaller than quoted what size of these or other brands should I get?
Thanks
 
I second the Nibbleze Chilli, mine arrived today and my girl is using it well and hay is lasting longer which is a relief. Other sizes seem to be out of stock at the moment on their site but I will probably get a larger one (or another 4kg one) for overnight use. My girl is on a diet and two will hold her night time ration.
 
If using nets will small holes , I wouldn't use the nylon types with knots on them as they can hurt their teeth and gums nibbling from those. The soft , knot-free types like the Shires and the Nibbleze are much kinder on the gums.
