Quast Metal Roofed Hay Feeders

Practical, Australian-made feeders designed to protect hay from the weather, keep it off the ground and help reduce waste.

Better Protection for Your Hay

Weather Protection

Generous roof coverage helps protect hay from rain and direct sunlight.

Less Hay Waste

Keeping hay contained and off the ground can help reduce trampling and feed losses.

Practical Transport

Fold-down roof sections are available on applicable models to reduce transport width.

Built to Suit
 

Feeding height, dimensions and side configurations can be adjusted for horses, ponies or livestock.

Designed from Practical Experience

The Quast Metal roofed hay feeder was developed by experienced boilermaker Philip Quast to provide a more practical way to feed hay in paddocks and yards. Having grown up on a thoroughbred stud, Phil understands the importance of protecting valuable hay while keeping feeding safe and accessible.

Four standard models are available, with custom dimensions and feeding heights available to suit individual requirements.
