Replacement Strap for Slow Feed Hay Bags

Arizona is warm year-round, which means we deal with flies year-round too. Earl Grey is a fleabitten grey gelding, and I’m always trying my best to protect him from both flies and UV light. Since it’s far too hot here for fly sheets, he just gets boots, a mask, and a tail bag. I absolutely love the Atlantis color—it looks gorgeous on him, even if he probably thinks I’m just a silly human.

He wore Professional’s Choice fly boots all summer and they held up great, but since our winter nights are at least a little cooler, I wanted to try these boots with fleece. Earl also tends to get bedsores on his knees and front fetlocks, so I’m hoping these will protect those areas as well as the Professional’s Choice boots did now that everything has healed. I do wish these were a little taller for that purpose, though.

The boots are very easy to put on and take off. I learned not to make them too tight—you don’t want to put pressure on tendons. I secure the bottom strap enough to keep the boot in place, and then just lightly close the other two. Earl definitely seems more comfortable now that he’s not constantly stomping or trying to bite at flies on his legs, and I have to admit, he looks absolutely beautiful in them.

I’ve had Earl on supplements for his mane, tail, coat, and hooves because he’s been rubbing his mane and tail, and I’m determined to help his tail grow longer. When I ordered a fly mask and boots, I added the Kensington tail bag to the order as well, hoping it would help protect what hair he has left and support new growth.

The tail bag is definitely long—longer than I expected—and the material feels a bit stiffer compared to other tail bags I’ve used. Earl is 15.3, and the bag actually drags on the ground when it’s attached, which makes me worry about him stepping on it or tearing it.

That said, I really appreciate the built-in fly swatter feature, and I’m hoping it gives him some much-needed relief from the constant flies. If the length doesn’t become an issue and he doesn’t destroy it, I’m optimistic that this tail bag will help him grow a fuller, longer tail by spring.

My Donkeys are the cutest in their Kensington outfits. Everyone is always asking me where I got them. I just LOVE them!!!

The aviator (with ears and long nose) is easy on and off velcro. The quality is evident. It is sturdy and my horse had no trouble adapting to the new mesh. Well made and worth the price. Fits well - horse size.

This sheet was exactly what I was looking for to keep my freshly clipped horse comfortable during the day. The color looks amazing on him and the fitment is perfect!

These are a must, they can hang on the stall they are super handy for shows to bring things along, every horse of mine will have one along with a blanket bag and they already all have protective sheets that match ❤️

I couldn’t speak more highly of these sheets! I own 4 horses and one pony and everyone has one! I LOVE THEM, they love them. My all black mare stays SOOO BLACK and shiny everyone notices, the difference in their coats is truly amazing.. best investment, below are my two blue boys rocking merlot and Atlantis

Gilbert really enjoys the flymask and fly boots. Great quality, and he is white so he needs excellent uv protection

I bought the tote to hold my horses medical supplies. Thankfully the small tote holds everything I need. The pockets and elastic straps come in very handy.

I have tried all sorts of boots for my Friesian and I have not been able to find anything that’ll fit with his feathering. Till now. The extra larges fit perfectly. He finally can get the relief to stop having to stomp his feet all the time.

We have been through so many sheets that are not durable or do not fit my horses properly. My warmbloods are narrow chested, and they’re very hard to fit. But I have not had any problems with fitting of any of my horses with these sheets. They are the best on the market.!

This fly mask fits great, a little small, but they have enough room for their ears as you can see in this picture. My yearling who is such a troublemaker and into everything hasn’t been able to weasel her way out of it! I’ll be ordering more for sure!

The quality of this fly mask is amazing. Most of the fly mask I purchased in the past which is fall off. They didn’t have the UV protection. This one has this is an amazing fly mask. I recommend to ever horse owner my horse had uveitis gives me peace of mind, knowing his one eye will be protected from the sun.

I have an Appaloosa with Uveitis and a Paint recently diagnosed with a cataract. These fly masks with 90% UV protection make me feel confident my horses’ eyes are being protected from the Sun. They fit well, are stylish, easy to clean and are pretty durable. I like the open area underneath to hook a lead rope to if I need be. And they aren’t priced ridiculous either.

I ordered a neck cover to go with an older model fly sheet. It attaches nicely to the fly sheet and matches well enough to not be obviously a different pattern. It’s good quality.
