Prevent your horse from getting bored in the stable!
Is your horse not able to graze much or is the transition in the autumn from grazing to stabling always a difficult one? We have a large range of articles that can prevent horses from being bored.
We have also written an extensive blog on how to prevent your horse from getting bored, with lots of very useful tips.
Feeding roughage with a slow feeder
Feeding lots of times is better than just 1 or 2 times a day, as you read everywhere that this is best for your horse. But sometimes it is not that easy to arrange. The slow feeder is a perfect solution for letting your horse do longer with roughage. The slowfeeder is in fact a very fine-meshed hay net and comes in many different designs and sizes. Also take a look at our range of hay nets (category stable & pasture > hay nets)
Horses toys
There are all sorts of toys for horses, for example toys with or without feed. In the group of toys with feeding you can find the hayplay, a big ball with holes which also works as a kind of slowfeeder. Then there are also various types of toys which can be filled with chunks. An example is the Snak a Ball of the brand Likit. When the horse rolls the ball, some chunks or the special Likit candies come out and it is a fantastic game for the horse with a reward of some tasty treats every time. The Feedplay by Maximus is also an item in this category.
Other toys with a delicious reward are the other articles in the Likit range. Likit is one of the best known brands in the field of preventing boredom and they have even developed a challenge system from level easy to the highest level difficult. In our blog on the subject of "boredom in horses" you can read all about it.
The best known Likit articles are:
- Likit holder with Likit liking stone
