Unknown Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 HelloA friend of mine lives near Parthenay and needs a hay net for some goats. They have looked in the bricos but have had no luck, any ideas where they might find such a thing.Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choochoo Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hi DottyWe couldnt find them in France either. A friend posted them from the UK to us, about £5 each I think, any horse feed supplier should have them. I would perhaps not use them for goats ( we use them for our sheep ) as they are basically made from string and will be chewed if I know goats. When we had goats ( never again !! ) I bought some weldmesh and cut and bent it to the rough shape.Best of luckJohn & Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Gamm Vert here sell them. Otherwise you can buy on line at www.padd.frThey are called "Filet a foin" and a search brings up 2 sorts - 1 only 3 euros!Forgot : Decathlon also sell them.

Chrisb Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I wouldn't use nets for goats either - I would be paranoid about them getting feet or horns tangled in the holes. We use hay-bags which can be found in Decathlon for a few Euros, or bought on-line from most of the Equestrian retailers, most of whom post to France. They are basically a heavy canvas type bag with a hole about 6 inches square on one side at the bottom - ours have survived really well and have not been chewed and there is no risk of them getting caught up in them.RegardsChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 The bags are also available at padd.fr, on the same page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
