Horses Love Steamed Hay
Did you know....
A study* showed that steamed hay, once tasted, was the first choice over soaked or dry hay, and consumed significantly more - 4.7 times that of dry hay!
Other benefits?
• Hay is clean from bacteria, mould, fungal spores and mites that can cause inflammation
• Rehydrates the hay making it softer for older horses
• Is highly effective in reducing Inflammatory Airway Disease (a recent study** showed prevalence in 84% of horses and steaming hay reduced the occurance by 63%!

What people say
"We’ve been using the Haygain Steamer for just over a month and It’s made ours and the horses lives so much better. The coughs have disappeared and they are all so much healthier eating steamed (hay) and we’re not wasting so much as they love it!" Caroline W.
"I love my Haygain I have always said it is the one item on the yard that we just can't do with out in fact we have just bought our second" Rebecca B.
"Excellent - would recommend to anyone, I bought my steamer to tempt my fussy mare into eating the hay I had. It was perfectly edible, but was made a few summers ago, so didn't smell as tempting as it once did ... now she's eating two full slices of my older hay, steamed, and her stable is tidy." Tamsin R.
