As a horse owner, you know exactly what your horse likes to do most.

Eat...eat...and again...eat!

horse-1074867_1280.jpg

Constant feed intake is an important, natural fact and contributes significantly to keeping your horse healthy. Unfortunately, today's hay meadows are no longer lean and rich in herbs, but are becoming meadows rich in protein and fructan due to increased fertilization and hay cuttings. This leads to rapid growth, lush greenery and significantly more yield for the farmer, but at the expense of the horses. Who then have to struggle with obesity, laminitis, Cushing's and EMS diseases, for example.

To prevent these diseases, horse owners and stable operators are forced to slow down their hay intake. Hay nets, hay bags, hay racks with a net or even a time-controlled hay rack can now be found in every stable.

Another reason why the constant supply of feed cannot always be guaranteed is the increasing price of hay, which forces many stable operators to reduce the amount of feed. This means that many horses are not provided with enough hay, especially overnight. Feeding breaks that are too long cause the stomach to become too acidic, which can lead to stomach ulcers and life-threatening colic. Signs such as water in the stool or problems with rideability can often be traced back to feeding.

Do these facts also give you a stomach ache? Then our hay bag is your solution, so that you can sleep peacefully and know that your horse is supplied with hay in a species-appropriate and healthy manner for hours. With our HeuToy we offer you an alternative to the hay net and hay rack. We have also created a product that greatly reduces all of the negative properties of conventional “slow feeders”. This includes…

 

  • the wear and tear of teeth on tightly woven hay nets.

  • the risk of accidents that can arise from climbing in or hooking the hoof.

  • the feeding height, which is usually set too high.

  • inhaling hay dust, which your horse inevitably has to endure when he eats hay.

  • the risk of horse colic.


You can now reduce and improve all of these negative characteristics with our HeuToy!

THESE ARE THE ADVANTAGES HEUTOY OFFERS YOU AND YOUR HORSE!

Prevents diseases


Due to the constant feed intake through the hay bag, your horse's stomach is permanently supplied with small amounts of hay. This prevents hyperacidificationeffective and stomach ulcers and life-threatening colic are prevented. Since your horse is eating the food now If you have to work it out, it will be busy eating for hours and with the right amount of hay for your horse. Accordingly, our HeuToy is ideal for easy-feeding horses and can have a positive effect on diseases such as laminitis, Cushing's or EMS.

Allows dust-free eating

The holes in the body are arranged so that the nostrils are always next to the feeding openings. Thus, in contrast to the hay net, i.eThe inhalation of hay dust is only possible to a great extent and, if necessary, the hay can also be fed wet, as no moisture build-up can form, which promotes rot and bacteria. That's why owners of people who are allergic to hay dust rely on our product and are increasingly reporting itss you can feed your horse dry hay again.

Supports natural eating posture


Our hay bag has an elongated body, which means you can keep the hay close to you You can place the floor. This gives your horse the opportunity to eat in a natural position. The number of chewing strokes is significantly increased, which helps the food to be better salivated and therefore better digested. At the same time, the chewing strokes increase your horse's level of satiety. A huge, widely underestimated advantage is that the teeth are worn at the correct grinding angle, reducing sharp edges and hooks in the horse's mouth. In addition, your horse is gymnastics in the neck and head area through alternating left/right movements. This means your horse can be much more relaxed when riding.

This means that, depending on the horse's character, the quality of the hay and the hanging position of the HeuToy, you can limit your P.'s eating timeferdes determinen. The smaller you make the floor slats and holes, the fThe more you press the hay in and the more freely you hang the HeuToy, the longer the horse needs to feed.

The story of HeuToy

My name is Udo Röck, I am the inventor and developer of HeuToy. Inventing new things and optimizing existing ones has always been my great passion. In our small family business in Upper Swabia, we develop tried and tested products with heart and passion.

The development story of HeuToy is more than simple. I worked in the agricultural trade for a while and always maintained friendly contact with farmers. One day when I came to one of my customers, I saw that he was filling his hay nets using my first invention, the sack bin. (https://www.udoroeck.de/sacktonne) I was thrilled and at the same time very interested in why my customer had converted the sack bin. He told me about the enormous time savings when filling the hay nets and that he had to sneeze significantly less because the quick and easy filling meant he inhaled less hay dust.


Once an inventor, always an inventor... It was already bubbling in my head. And I asked myself whether it was possible to develop a product from the sack bin and the hay net that could be used directly for feeding. I found out about feeding horses with hay. What was important, what were the problems, what would be the optimal feeding…? With accumulated knowledge, I then got to work and developed today's HeuToy from my sack bin. After an extensive test phase and numerous improvements, the HeuToy has been on the market since 2011 and has helped over 30,000 horses to eat natural and healthy feed.
