The Tray Hay Feeder is a heavy-duty round bale feeder designed to reduce hay waste, improve feed efficiency, and provide years of dependable service. Built with a reinforced stainless steel tray, hot-dip galvanized steel frame, and an adjustable-height basket, this feeder accommodates livestock as bale size changes while allowing the tray to double as a meal feeding platform.
Ideal for cattle, calves, and horses, the Tray Hay Feeder is engineered to protect valuable forage while minimizing feed loss.
