NEW PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT! From: Bale Buddy


Double Mini Slow Bale


Buddy: holds 2 small square bales or 1 three string square bale. It is the perfect size for weekends away, as well as for horse owners who do not want to put out hay as often.


Large Square Slow


Bale Buddy: specially sized for large square bales and works well for all large square bales up to 4X4X8 feet.


Both feeders come with our patented safety fastener that


eliminates unsafe drawstring closures. All seams are double bound and reinforced and the netting is 100% knotless nylon. Nylon is the softest and strongest of all the netting materials and does not cause wear to the teeth and muzzle like poly and poly blend nets. There is a one-year warranty on all Bale Buddy feeders; the


customer contacts Buddy Incorporated directly for all warranty issues. www.bigbalebuddy.com. w
