This is a large flat sheet of knotless braided polypropylene netting, 16 ft by 13 ft, sold uncut and unshaped so you can build your own hay net, round bale cover or slow feeder. The 5 mm braided strands and knotless construction are the draw: knotless mesh is gentler on lips and gums and holds its shape better than knotted netting. Mesh comes in several hole sizes, from 3/4 in up to 2 1/2 in, so you match the hole to how hard you want to slow the animal down. It suits owners with an odd-sized bale, a homemade feeder or a repair job that no premade net fits. Against ready-made hay nets it asks more work from you, since you cut, tie and finish it yourself, and no drawstring is included.

Rated 4.6 out of 5 across 10 ratings, buyers are pleased with the netting itself. They value the knotless build and the flexibility of a bulk sheet for custom jobs.
This is a bulk roll of Deluxe Knotless Netting, sold as a large flat sheet that measures 16 ft x 13 ft. It is not shaped into a bag, so you can cut and craft it to fit a use that premade hay nets or round bale nets don't cover. No drawstring is included.
The netting is made from braided polypropylene, 0.2 in (5 mm) thick. It comes in several mesh sizes: 3/4" (2 cm), 1 1/4" (3 cm), 1 3/4" (4 cm) and 2 1/2" (6 cm). Smaller holes slow feeding more, and larger holes mainly keep hay together and reduce wastage.
The 1 3/4" (4 cm) mesh is the most common size and a good starting point for horses new to slow feeding. The 1 1/4" (3 cm) and 3/4" (2 cm) meshes suit horses already used to slow feeders. The 2 1/2" (6 cm) mesh works as a hay saver for stalky or less palatable hay. The netting is also used for cattle, sheep, alpacas and goats. Horns can tangle in the net and ear tags can be rubbed out.
