Has Filling Your Horses Hay Bags Become A Drag On Your Time?
Hay bags are a great way to help you horse enjoy their hay longer -- so beneficial for the gut and their well being. But Filling those hay bags-- using one hand to keep it open and the other to try to stuff in the hay before it falls to the ground, can be frustrating! If you have several horses to feed, it can become a dreaded part of their feeding routine.

How Did The Hay-EZ™ Come To Be?

Says Janessa, owner and inventor: "Hay-EZ™ began with a simple goal: to make everyday barn life easier. I’ve been around horses and animals my whole life, running my own barn and traveling constantly to rodeos and jackpots. And like many others, filling hay nets was always a struggle. I tried everything—holding them open with my knees, using muck buckets, trash cans, laundry baskets, sliding a net over one end flip it over slip on net on the other end then cut the strings, and still ending up with hay everywhere or never being able to pack the net full. It was frustrating, time–consuming, and hard on my back.

A few years ago, I was diagnosed with a back condition, and bending over or lifting upward for long periods became painful. Feeding the horses I love shouldn’t have to hurt. That’s when the idea for Hay-EZ™ was born. I wanted a way to make hay net filling quicker, cleaner, and easier on the body—while still allowing nets to be packed tightly and efficiently.I created these stands to solve a real problem I was facing every day. And when friends in the horse community began asking for their own, I realized it wasn’t just my problem—this could help others too.Hay-EZ™ stands are lightweight, durable, easy to transport, and made right here in the USA. They’re built to make your life easier, save you time, reduce waste, and help you take better care of your horses without straining your body."I truly want what’s best for you and your horse(s), and I hope Hay-EZ™ becomes something you can rely on in your barn, trailer, or on the road—just like I do."

So What Is The Hay-EZ™?
So glad you asked! Hay-EZ™ is an American-made line of hay net filler stands built specifically to solve one of the most common daily frustrations in horse keeping — the awkward, time-consuming, back-straining process of filling slow-feed hay nets and bags. Founded by a lifelong horsewoman who grew up working with horses and experienced these challenges firsthand, Hay-EZ™ was designed from the ground up with real barn life in mind. The result is a purpose-built product that makes filling hay nets faster, cleaner, easier on the body, and more efficient at every single feeding.

What Is A Hay-EZ™ Stand and What Does It Do?

A Hay-EZ™ stand is a sturdy, purpose-designed frame that holds your hay net or hay bag wide open and fully upright — hands-free — while you fill it. Rather than wrestling with a floppy net, stuffing hay in one-handed, or balancing a bag between your knees, you simply hang or set the net on the stand and drop hay in freely with both hands. The stand grips and secures the net so it stays open, allowing you to pack it as fully and tightly as you want without any struggle. Once full, you remove the net and hang it for your horse as normal. That's the entire process.

Who is Hay-EZ™ Designed For?

Hay-EZ™ is designed for any horse owner who uses slow-feed hay nets or hay bags as part of their feeding routine. This includes backyard horse owners with one or two horses, boarding facility managers feeding large numbers of animals twice daily, competitive riders and trainers who travel to horse shows and need a compact, portable solution, and anyone whose barn routine involves repetitive hay bag filling that takes too much time or causes physical strain.

Why Is Filling Hay Nets Without A Hay-EZ™ So Hard??

Hay nets and bags are designed to hold hay under tension once hung — but that same design makes them nearly impossible to hold open for filling without help. The net collapses on itself the moment you let go, forcing most people into inefficient workarounds: holding the opening with one hand while trying to load hay with the other, stuffing the net between their knees, draping it over a trash can or muck bucket, or propping it against a wall. All of these methods share the same problems: they don't hold the net fully open, they make it difficult to pack the net tightly, hay spills on the ground, and most require bending and twisting in ways that strain the back and joints — especially over time.

What Models Are Available?

We know that every situation is different and so the needs of horse owners are different too. That is why we made sure that the Hay-EZ™ currently offers three stand options, each designed for a different barn setup or use case: .

Free Standing Hay-EZ $135
A fully self-supporting stand that requires no installation and no attachment to a wall or structure. Simply set it anywhere — in a stall, in the barn aisle, in a pasture area, or at a trailer — load your net, and move on. Portable enough to carry from location to location. The ideal choice for most everyday barn use with multiple horses.

Hanging Hay-EZ $95
Designed to hang from an existing overhead structure, keeping the floor completely clear beneath it. This makes it especially popular for horse show environments where stall space is at a premium, as well as for trailer use. It takes up virtually no floor space and is easy to pack and transport.

Table Mount Hay-EZ $40
A compact clamp-on option that attaches to a table, shelf, or other flat surface. The most affordable entry point in the lineup and well-suited for travel, smaller operations, or situations where a permanent or semi-permanent mounting location is available.
