HOW TO TIE A HAY NET
Text | Hannah Botha, MSc, Epol Nutrition Advisor
If your pony needs his hay in a haynet it is important to tie it up safely and securely so that your pony cannot hurt himself.

Step 1: Fill the haynet with the correct amount of hay for your pony.
Step 2 Find a secure spot to tie your haynet such as a metal ring in the stable.
Step 3 Check that the haynet is high enough, as empty haynets will hang lower than full ones.
Step 4 Pass the rope through the ring and then pull it through the bottom of the haynet and pull tightly upwards.
Step 5 Then make a loop with the loose end of the string and push the remaining string through the loop pulling tightly to create the knot.
And, voila, you have a secure haynet ready for your pony to guzzle on!
