About Stall Grazer
25 Years ago we found a problem that needed solving.
In nature or on a pasture, horses will eat for approximately 17 hours each day slowly ingesting forage with the head down. We brought horses from their natural environment into barns, box stalls and pens without consideration of how they are designed to eat.
What is the problem?
In the past and even today, many feeders attach to the stall wall or corral fence approximately four feet off of the ground and hold only one or two flakes of hay. Horses teeth do not align until their head is at ground level. Hanging feeders force the horse to pull the hay from the feeder and eat it off the ground. Feeding two flakes twice a day will cause horses to gorge their feed and consume all the hay within an hour or less leaving the stomach empty for an extended period of time until we feed them again 12 hours later and the process is repeated.
Why continuous forage matters.
A horse’s digestive system is designed around frequent forage intake. The stomach continuously produces acid to support digestion, while chewing and saliva help buffer that acid as forage moves through the stomach.
The lower portion of the stomach is lined with glandular mucosa, which produces acid but also has protective mechanisms including mucus and bicarbonate. The upper portion is lined with nonglandular mucosa, which has less natural protection from acid exposure.
When a horse goes for long periods without forage, the stomach may remain relatively empty while acid production continues. This can increase exposure of the more sensitive nonglandular portion of the stomach to acidic contents. Exercise can also cause stomach contents to move higher within the stomach, while large grain meals may further increase acidity.
Stall Grazer feeds horses the way nature intended.
After observing horses pulling hay from elevated feeders and eating it from the stall floor, our company president began studying natural feeding behavior and looking for a better way to support longer, slower forage consumption.
The Stall Grazer family of 3-in-1 feeders sits at ground level and provides greater hay capacity, helping horses eat in a more natural head-down position while extending feeding time.
By encouraging slower, more consistent forage consumption, Stall Grazer supports a feeding routine that more closely resembles natural grazing behavior.
