The feeder that should not be missing in your stable

We all want the best for the horses. They get the best tack, the best accommodation, the best therapies, nothing is too crazy to make sure the horses have a good time. Yet we often see that when it comes to feed, things could be a lot better. At too many accommodations, for instance, it is still not possible to provide a horse with unlimited roughage all day, in a natural way. As a result, a horse is often deprived of roughage for too long and the body suffers from a lack of eating stimuli. Fortunately, we at Equitrend have found the solution to this underestimated problem.

The 3-in-1 Feeding Bowl
Developed with a horse's natural needs in mind, the 3-in-1 Feeder is an invention you wish you had discovered much earlier. The feeder consists of three different compartments. The two smaller outer compartments are for concentrate feed and any supplements. But the middle compartment is the point that makes this feeder so unique. Namely, this compartment is designed to hold a full 15kg bale of hay. The design has very deliberately considered the shape of the feeder. Thus, it fits perfectly in the corner of the stable and there are no sharp edges, making it extra safe for the horse to eat from.

Natural posture
Often, a large amount of roughage is offered in hay nets. This forces the horses to make an oblique and pulling movement, which in the long run has a negative effect on the horse's neck and back and often causes frustration. With the 3-in-1 Feeder, the design is such that the horses have to eat naturally. Because the middle compartment is one metre deep, the horses can eat the roughage in a natural and relaxed manner with their heads low. The possibility of placing a whole bale of roughage in the compartment means the horse can be supplied with roughage all day long.

Saving
Apart from the many advantages for the horses, the 3-in-1 Feeder is also a great product for horse owners. For example, by offering the roughage in the middle compartment, on average 30% less of the roughage is lost. This is because when the roughage is placed on the ground or if it falls to the ground from the hay net, it is often walked through the stall. It is also common for the horse to dung on it and then prefer not to eat it, which of course is a huge waste of roughage.

In short, the 3-in-1 Feeder is something that makes both horse and human happier and really should no longer be missing in any stable. You want this too, don't you?

“What a godsend, the E-strow cart! Before we had an electric straw trolley, it took several people to move straw around the yard. Now it's a whole lot simpler. It is now possible to move a lot of straw by yourself, ideal! It makes the work a lot easier.”

“In the long distant past keeping the track in our arenas level was a hell of a job. We tried everything, from pulling it in with a shovel, to a hand plough and various accessories on the tractor. We eventually discovered the Equitrend arena leveller which has been saving us work on a daily basis for years and which ensures an optimal track. An additional advantage is the small size of this solid machine, making it easily accessible to use and meaning the stable girls readily get on it. It was quite a hefty investment but it has paid for itself twice over.”
