Hay expands as it soaks, and a heavy item will cause the hay to become too compressed within the container. We just tie filled haynets to hitching post, give a good soak through with hose and let them drain while you get on with mucking out/ the rest of yard duties and then hang them up before you leave when most of the water has drained out. With the pitchfork on top, holding the handle of the fork against one handle of the wheelbarrow, tilt the wheelbarrow up at about 45 degrees to let more water drain out.If you use a couple of clean large rocks to hold the hay down in the water, you will find you can get away with using less water.

Or, if you want to try something a little bit different, take a peek at my Adagio Rooibos Vanilla Chai review. Given the great sheen and decent coverage, you may be surprised to hear that this satinwood paint is actually water-based, meaning brushes and rollers can be cleaned with just soapy water. In Victoria, Australia, there is an excellent hay making company (Top Foda) who have learned how to produce low sugar/low potassium hay that does not need to be soaked. Although it should always be applied in a well-ventilated area, it has a much weaker odour than other oil-based satinwood paints.

I then bought a large (bath shaped) plastic tub, sort of long and thin with nice shallow sides but have to fill this to the top to soak the full length of the hay sections and then its pretty heavy to lift up one end to pour off excess water. Pitchfork underneath, lever the hay up, resting the fork against the rim of the tub to let the excess water drain out. So for best results, leave for a few minutes longer and tip again before replacing the cap and feeding. But it's not just the sugar content that you want to reduce, soaking also removes some of the protein, but that takes longer to leach out.

Soaking hay renders it more suitable for over-weight horses, those that have Equine Metabolic Syndrome, especially those who have or are recovering from laminitis. Bion has got the strength and intensity just right and once again I’m super impressed with the quality I found. Each horse gets his/her ration on the clean stall floor, and it's sprayed a bit just for the extra moisture and to lower the dust levels. To be sure, there are some who proclaim Christ through rivalry and strife, but others proclaim Christ though goodwill. Drink it before brushing your teeth and you’ll be able to scrub away the slightly furry texture it leaves on your teeth… but that means getting back out of bed and undoing all the soothing that the chamomile did at the start.Jennifer has owned horses for over 28 years and has dealt with managing health issues like COPD/Heaves and Founder/Laminitis both ailments required soaking hay. Barrow it into the stable, position it underneath the hay-net tie ring and use the rope again in a pulley system to heave it up again with ease, and tie it off securely. Horses that require a low-sugar diet, such as those with Laminitis or insulin resistance, might benefit from soaked hay. When the main flow has ceased, use the rope which is already through the tie-ring to heave the net up out of the bin to drain further. Since Trooper was going to require his hay soaked for the long term, Lee (Dad) was recruited to help find an easy way to soak hay for his grandhorsie.

FWIW, our YOs have 6 horses that get stalled at night, and they don't SOAK the hay, they spray it a bit with a garden hose. But rest assured that there is NO NEED to get soaking wet, cold or strain yourself lifting heavy wet hay.If it's too heavy - just make sure not to put too many slices in and just give more haynets of 2 slices would make it much easier to haul out the water. The easiest way is in a large tub – old bath tubs are ideal with the plug at the bottom - situated near your hose.
