tinue to grow as fuel and fertil- izer prices climb and weather plays into the equation. This is no news to any horse owner. Square bales are generally about twice the cost of a round bale, but round bales create that waste issue. Hors- es kick and roll around in the bale and drop their own waste on it and then look at their owners as if to say, “I’m not eating THIS mess.” And then there is always the issue of weather damage. This repetitive cycle can create a loss of 30% or more of each bale. Further, there is the labor of cleaning up this wasted hay as it gets rained on causing that nasty black mold under

appeal. As if all of this isn’t enough, feeding square bales several times a day creates a labor-intensive issue making certain that horse owners have no life of their own. This long-standing
problem now has an innovative and WELL TESTED solution, “Hay Huts”. Hay Huts are now being used by the Houston Mounted Patrol Unit to save taxpayer money, by Texas A & M University, by Chris Cox as seen on RFD-TV, A Wizards Spell Gypsy Horse Ranch (home of 30+ of the nation’s top Gypsy show horses), Equivale (USDF/USEF Dressage judge and breeder of Palomino Warmblood Sporthorses and Lipizzans), and so many more. The concept is very
simple, cover your hay so it is “weatherproofed” and so it re- mains in one compact area that they cannot soil. The Hay Huts are manufactured in Missouri with dealers in Texas and are of the sturdiest rotation molded polyethylene and therefore can- not rust or cause injury to your horse like steel round rings can. The Hay Huts simply tip over your round bale by hand. The dimension are 6’ x 7’ wide and 7’ tall so they cover all sizes
work for those in need. Three units (six halves) fit in the bed of a pickup. Hay Huts will pay for themselves in approximately six months and produce $aving$ for many years to come. Hay Huts will certainly also accommodate square bales, but you might find the savings in switching to round bales could be worth it.

And, for those who really want to, there are anchor points in the corners. “I
don’t have heavy equipment to move it around.” You just push it over by hand or pull it with a lead rope attached to the top. It is EASY.
