Round Poly Horse Hay Feeder
This popular plastic hay feeder is designed for horse safety with overlapping joints & countersunk fasteners. It's made with 2" thick, UV-resistant yellow resin and includes a 2-year manufacturer warranty. The four-piece design helps keep shipping costs low and forms a round, 8'- 4" diameter (100"), 35" tall hay feeder. The feeder is light enough to be rolled by hand and only weighs 120 lbs, but the legs have openings built into the bottom so the 'feet' may be staked to the ground to prevent it from moving!
Please note there has been a slight design change to remove the excess holes in the feeder. The current feeder design is shown in the bottom picture below.

Round Poly Horse Hay Feeder for Horses
The Round Poly Horse Hay Feeder provides a durable, horse-friendly way to feed round bales in pastures, paddocks, and other outdoor feeding areas. Its large 8-foot 4-inch outside diameter accommodates full-size round hay bales while the 35-inch side walls help keep hay contained within the feeding area. Made from UV-resistant poly resin, this round bale feeder is designed for year-round outdoor use and provides an alternative to traditional metal hay rings.
Safety is a key part of the feeder's design. The four sections connect with overlapping joints, and the exterior fasteners are countersunk into the poly walls to help eliminate protruding hardware that could scratch or cut a horse. The feeder is also lightweight enough to roll to a new location by hand, making it easier to move between pastures or feeding areas than many heavy metal bale feeders.
Round Bale Feeder Designed for Horse Safety
Feeding horses from a properly designed hay feeder can help keep a round bale contained while providing horses with access to hay around the perimeter. This feeder was designed specifically with horse safety in mind, using overlapping joints and recessed hardware rather than exposed fasteners along the outside of the feeder.
The smooth poly construction eliminates many of the concerns associated with sharp or rusting metal components. Countersunk hardware is positioned below the exterior surface of the feeder to help protect horses as they move around the bale and reach through the feeder for hay.
Large 8' 4" Round Hay Feeder
The assembled feeder has an outside diameter of approximately 8 feet 4 inches, or 100 inches, providing ample space for a round bale. The 35-inch side walls create a substantial feeding enclosure around the bale while allowing horses to reach the hay from the outside.
The feeder is made from four individual sections that bolt together to create the complete round configuration. This sectional design makes the feeder easier to assemble and also provides a practical way to handle and ship a feeder of this size.
UV-Resistant Poly Construction
The feeder is made from 2-inch-thick UV-resistant poly resin designed for continuous outdoor exposure. The material is formulated for use in changing weather conditions and provides an alternative to metal feeders that can rust or develop sharp edges over time.
The poly construction also keeps the feeder relatively lightweight. At approximately 120 pounds, the assembled feeder can be rolled by hand when it needs to be moved to another feeding location.
Move the Hay Feeder Where You Need It
Pasture feeding locations often change as grazing areas, weather, and hay requirements change. The relatively lightweight poly construction makes this round bale feeder easier to relocate than many conventional steel hay rings. The feeder can be moved to a new area when the bale is replaced or when the feeding location needs to change.
Openings built into the bottom of the legs also provide a way to stake the feeder to the ground. Anchoring can help prevent movement caused by wind or by horses pushing against the feeder during feeding.
Use the Feeder for Smaller Horses and Animals
The 35-inch wall height is suitable for full-size horses, but the feeder can also be positioned upside down to provide a lower feeding height. When inverted, the side walls are approximately 26 inches high, making the feeder useful for smaller horses, ponies, and other animals that may have difficulty reaching over the standard wall height.
This flexibility allows the same round poly feeder to accommodate different animal sizes without requiring a separate smaller hay ring.

Reduce Hay Waste Around Round Bales
A round bale placed directly on the ground can be difficult to manage as horses pull hay from the bale and move through the feeding area. A round bale feeder provides a defined feeding space around the bale and helps keep more of the hay contained within the feeding area.
The large circular design allows multiple horses to feed around the bale while the surrounding poly walls help keep loose hay from spreading beyond the feeder. The feeder can be used in a pasture, paddock, or other outdoor area where round bales are provided for horses.
Easy Assembly and Handling
The feeder consists of four sections that connect to form the completed round feeder. The sectional construction makes the individual pieces easier to handle during assembly than a single-piece feeder of the same overall size.
Once assembled, the feeder can be rolled to another location when necessary. This makes it practical for operations that rotate feeding areas or need to reposition the feeder as conditions change.
