The automatic hay feeders have a full length door at one end, which allows access to the winch for raising the doors, the timer, and the solar control switch. The other end door has a solid panel on the bottom and a half door on the top for filling the hay rack. The half door makes it nice to place the horse feeder against a fence and then be able to open the door from outside the fence and fill the hay trough.
This automatic hay feeding system has many advantages for both the owner and the horse.
-
The horses don't get nervous and pace around looking for you at feeding time. They just stand there relaxed knowing the doors will go down for feeding when it's time.
Watch hay feeding video.
-
The horses get the amount of hay at the feeding time you want them to have. Works good with hot alfalfa hay. Eliminates over eating.
-
The metal roof keeps the hay covered and dry even in the worst of storms. This covered feeder greatly reduces the chances of getting moldy hay and making your horses sick.
-
Horses get fed as many times a day as you want without being over fed. This is ideal for the owner that doesn't want to hurry to feed in the morning or hurry home to fed on time. Great for cold snowy mornings, watch out the window as the horses are automatically fed.
-
Horses are ready for you when you want, you don't have to be there to feed them. Your not tied down to a feeding schedule. Just fill the hay rack and forget it for a couple of days. This method can cut down on the waste by up to 35% . If the horses have a lot of time they will just pull out all the hay looking for the best stuff. Set the hay feeders doors to close after 1 hour and the horses will clean up the spilled hay, instead of trampling and wasting it.
Minimizing wasted hay makes this automated hay feeder pay for itself quickly.
-
All of these automatic horse feeders have a saftey switch which eliminates any chance of injury due to getting caught in a closing door. The saftey switch is fully adjustable and stops the unit when any resistance greater than the weight of the door is encountered. This is similar to saftey switches used on automatic garage doors.
