1. Grazing muzzles have a small hole at the bottle of the muzzle that allows small pieces of grass to come through for the horse to eat. This regulates the amount of grass intake during pasture time, allowing the horse to be on pasture with his buddies without getting a little too chunky!

Explanation

Grazing muzzles indeed have a small hole at the bottom to allow small pieces of grass to pass through for the horse to eat. This feature helps regulate the amount of grass intake, preventing the horse from overeating and becoming overweight. By using a grazing muzzle, the horse can still enjoy pasture time with other horses while maintaining a healthy weight. Therefore, the statement is true.

About This Quiz
Hay Is For Horses! - Quiz

Explore the essentials of equine feeding with 'Hay is for Horses!' This quiz assesses knowledge on slow-feeder hay bags, durability needs, and specific product recommendations for various equine health and management scenarios, sharpening skills in effective horse care.

2. What makes the large cotton hay net different from the other hay net options we carry?

Explanation

The large cotton hay net is different from the other hay net options because it is much larger with much larger holes, it is not a slow-feed hay net, and the material is 100% cotton rather than a blend or synthetic alternative.

Submit
3. Identify this hay feeder.

Explanation

The correct answer is the Corner or Slant Load Trailer Feed/Hay Bag. This type of hay feeder is specifically designed to be used in corner or slant load trailers. It is designed to hang securely in the trailer and provide easy access for horses to eat hay while on the go. This hay bag is a convenient and practical option for feeding horses during transportation.

Submit
4. Slow feeding is a natural approach to feeding horses and is the best option for every horse.

Explanation

Slow feeding is a more natural approach to feeding horses in a manner that better imitates the natural eating tendencies of horses in the wild; however, slow feeding may not always be the best option for EVERY horse. Each horse has individual needs and slow-feeding may not be effective for every horse ever.

Submit
5. A customer calls needing a hay bag to endure her playful horse's ravenous eating habits - she is most concerned about durability but also wants something that is easy to load and hang in various places because she is always moving her horses around. What would be the best feed bag or net to recommend?

Explanation

The Hold Your Horses bag is made of durable mesh, but it doesn't have as many hanging or attachment options as other designs. We have received a lot of negative feedback regarding the quality of both the Pro Choice Bags and the Niblet Nets - I would not recommend these to a customer looking for an extra durable hay feeder.

Submit
6. Which Hay Net is this?

Explanation

This question asks to identify a specific hay net from the given options. The correct answer is "NibbleNet Slow Feeder Hay Bag."

Submit
7. What is the most important factor for customers to understand before they purchase any net from the Freedom Feeder line?

Explanation

Before purchasing any net from the Freedom Feeder line, the most important factor for customers to understand is that these nets are part of a full-time, restricted feed system that requires a transition period. This means that it will take time for the horses to adjust to the new feeding system and for the customers to learn how to properly use and set up the nets.

Submit
8. Identify this bag:

Explanation

The correct answer is the Easycare Stowaway Hay & Gear Bag. The other options mentioned are different brands or models of bags.

Submit
9. A customer called looking for a slow-feeder bag for her insulin-resistant horse who needs his hay soaked for every feeding. She is older and not very strong, so she doesn't want something that is too heavy because the hay will already be heavy when wet. Which bag would you recommend?

Explanation

Neither the Hold Your Horses or Cashel Mesh Bottom bag are "slow-feeder" style, so those will not appeal to this customer. Though the NibbleNet is a possible solution, it is MUCH heavier than the Freedom Feeder or other net slow-feeders and might be more difficult for her to manage with the heavier weight of wet hay.

Submit
10. We carry the replacement strap for the Niblet Hay Net.

Explanation

Close, but no. We carry the replacement strap for the NibbleNet Hay Bag, not Niblet nets. :D

Submit
11. Select all of the following brands that offer a slow-feeder style hay bag or net.

Explanation

Freedom Feeder, Cashel, and NibbleNet are the correct answers because these brands offer a slow-feeder style hay bag or net.

Submit
12. What are all the benefits of using the Cashel Hay Handler?

Explanation

The Cashel Hay Handler offers several benefits. Firstly, it reduces hay waste, ensuring that more of the hay is utilized effectively. Additionally, it protects the hay from rain, weather, and other elements during transport from the hay barn to the feeder. It also serves as both a hay carrier and feeder, providing convenience and efficiency. Moreover, it safeguards the hay tosser from hay being blown back against them while dropping it over the fence. Lastly, it protects the hay carrier from irritation caused by scratchy hay and allows for easier carrying of multiple hay flakes at once.

Submit
13. Check off all of the features or benefits that the Porta Grazer offers.

Explanation

The holes in the feed pan are actually 3.5" in diameter. The design still promotes slow-feeding, but the holes are certainly easier to eat from than one of the slow-feeder nets with 2" holes.
