Marine Grade netting is abrasion resistant, UV inhibited, and built to be over-stuffed, which gives it a much longer life than typical feed-net materials. The Orange Slow Feeder uses netting with a 1200 lb breaking point. Brian Leary and his clients have used the same nets with their horses for nearly 4 years.

Slow feeders reduce hay waste and support a more natural, healthy way to feed, which can lower costs tied to hay, colic, and ulcer prevention. The bigger savings come from durability: if you replace cheaper nets every 30 to 90 days, those costs add up fast. Orange Slow Feeder nets are built to last years, reducing your long-term replacement cost.

The current square size is 1-3/4 inch. Additional sizes are planned, with 1-3/8", 1-1/2", and 2" squares listed as up-and-coming options.

The lineup includes the Small Trailer Feeder at $42.50, the Large Trailer Feeder at $57.50, the Pumpkin Net at $72.50, and the West Coast Net at $92.50. Larger options include the Round Bale Net at $215 to $345 depending on size, the Small Square Bale Net at $330, and the Large Square Bale Net at $390.

Yes. The nets are designed to be compact for easy storage and transport, while still offering a wide opening that makes filling simple — they can even be over-stuffed. That suits busy horse owners who often work jobs off the farm or ranch.

That is exactly the problem it was built to solve. Founder Brian Leary started the company after his own horses destroyed every net he tried, and customers report the nets are virtually indestructible. One client kept the same net in front of a known net-eater for 18 months.
