HayHuts

HayHuts make happy horses, happy owners and happily fit in the bed of the truck!


Sterling Graburn introduced me to a fantastic product for feeding big round bales of hay: The HayHut.  This is the most exciting thing I've seen in a long while.  A plastic house with windows that COVERS THE BALE, reducing waste, protecting the bale, encouraging good eating manners in horses, made in America by Americans with hardware bagged by individuals with disabilities and one model made of recycled material and rated "exceptional" in a study by the U of Minnesota.  This is GENIUS.

In green or recycled, UV resistant black, HayHuts have 8 tall windows with rounded edges to eliminate mane breakage even in tall horses, fit  up to 1600lb bales- round or square with all kinds of engineering features make this the Best. Thing. Ever.


HayHuts is the brain child of Denis Thornton, an English ex-pat, retired British Navy fighter pilot, who sold his Austin Healey 3000 Mark III [very fancy British sports car] to finance what his friends told him was a crazy scheme.  Considering that most horse people are also crazy, this is, in fact, quite sensible.  I told Thornton everyone should have one of these and he replied, "Some day everyone will."



For more information on this wonderful product and 35 reasons to love HayHuts, visit the HayHut website:  http://hayhuts.com/index.htm  Be sure to click on the blue links to see photos of HayHuts "diligent young craftsmen" and Fargo "the HayHuts Hound".

There is nothing not to love about HayHuts.  Hail and blessed be the hour we all look pastureward and see our horses contentedly munching hay through the windows of one.
