"The holes are so small and ‘slow’ my horse actually gave up on it. Would probably be good for goats and sheep or other small mouthed livestock but my fat horse with his fat lips couldnt graze on it. Quality seems pretty good and I like the size. It holds a couple blocks instead of a whole bale. ..."
