Product Information
Full details
The Stubbs Horse Hay Roller is an ideal solution for horse owners looking to provide enrichment and slow-feeding options for their ponies in stables or paddocks. This durable, conical-shaped feeder helps alleviate boredom by encouraging natural grazing behavior while keeping hay contained. While it is built for long-lasting use, users should ensure the surrounding area is free of hazards to prevent the roller from becoming trapped against walls or in corners during play.

FAQs
Is this suitable for full-sized horses?
This specific model is the 'Pony' size. It is best suited for ponies and smaller equine breeds.
Can I use this with wet hay?
It is recommended to use dry, clean hay to prevent mold growth inside the roller and ensure it dispenses smoothly.
How do I clean the inside of the roller?
You can rinse the interior with a hose and allow it to air dry completely before refilling with fresh hay.
Is the material safe for horses to chew on?
The roller is made from tough, durable plastic. However, if your horse is an aggressive chewer, monitor them closely to ensure they are not damaging the unit.
Does the roller come in other colors?
This model is designed specifically in a green finish for visibility in the paddock.
Troubleshooting
Hay is not falling out of the roller.
The hay may be packed too tightly inside. Remove some of the contents to allow for easier movement and flow.
The roller gets stuck in the corner of the stable.
Ensure the stable floor is cleared of obstacles and consider using the roller in a larger open field or paddock.
The pony is not engaging with the feeder.
Try placing a few loose handfuls of hay around the outside of the roller to encourage the pony to investigate the device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the Stubbs Horse Hay Roller, simply unscrew or open the filling mechanism and pack the hay loosely into the central funnel. Do not overstuff the roller, as this can prevent the hay from dispensing correctly during use. For care, regularly inspect the exterior of the plastic housing for any sharp edges or cracks that may occur over time. Clean the interior periodically to remove dust, debris, and old hay residues to maintain hygiene. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to extend the life of the materials.
