Clean, Healthy Hay.... Simple!

HAYGAIN is the revolutionary hay steamer that conditions hay into dust-free, highly palatable forage thus enhancing your horse's health and respiratory performance. 

The Problem:

• 80% of horses stabled part of the time suffer from some airway inflammation, limiting their performance, even if asymptomatic.   
• More than 1 in 6 horses have actual respiratory conditions, affecting health and performance.  
• Allergens found in hay lead to a number of respiratory diseases, including RAO/COPD and IAD/SAD  
• The hygiene quality of hay is far more important to a horse's health than its nutritional value, due to modern feeding methods.  
• Soaking hay does not kill spores, is messy and leaches out the hay's nutrients; moreover, its residue is an environmental pollutant.  
• Spores in hay can also affect people, sometimes severely, from hay fever to Farmer's Lung.  

Research:

HAYGAIN's Microbiology Test Results

The Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester, United Kingdom, provided the initial scientific research led by Dr. Meriel Moore-Colyer PhD BHSII. She is considered by many as one of the leading equine nutrition researchers and authors in the world. The research continues as HAYGAIN is currently implementing multiple projects on three different continents to further the HAYGAIN hay steamer process and benefits.

Before:

Before HAYGAIN: The number of spore colonies grown from one gram of untreated good quality dry hay on a microbial media was 7.75 million.

After HAYGAIN: essentially zero spores.

HAYGAIN Testimonials

• "Before I was introduced to HAYGAIN, I was soaking hay for Brentina to make sure that it was more palatable and dust free. After her colic surgery, we were encouraged to do so. I was also aware that it was taking all of the important nutrients out but did not know what else to do. Then I found HAYGAIN and not just Brentina but every horse in our barn is so happy. Now after our horses are fed the only sound you hear are the horses chewing. I no longer hear sneezing or coughing due to dust or mold spores. Once you have HAYGAIN you will never go back. Not to mention how wonderful it smells while it is steaming!"  Debbie McDonald, 2-time Dressage Olympian of Hailey, Idaho
• "HAYGAIN hay steamers have revolutionized the way I feed hay to my horses. It's such a comfort knowing that our hay is so palatable and spore-free. Dust and spore-free hay is vital to any sport horse, and in particular my eventers. Very little water is needed and , as a result, there are more savings and less waste. It is also a much easier and less messy job than soaking." Matt Ryan, International Event Rider and Triple Olympic Gold Medalist
• "Allergy horses have shown success with reduced clinical signs and decreased medical management from previous years and the only change in their treatment plan has been a HAYGAIN unit." Dr. Chad S. Davis, Equine Medical Services of Northern Virginia
• "In 2009, my top advanced horse, Manior De Carneville, pulled up from a 9 minute cross country round with large amounts of blood coming from his nose. I was shocked and spent the next few weeks scoping, taking blood samples and ultimately doing allergy tests. It turns out my horse was suffering from severe allergies to hay. He was having problems breathing and under high stress at the FEI level, the severity of his allergy became apparent. I was soon introduced to the HAYGAIN and it has become one of my favorite products. 'Tate' (Manoir De Carneville) has persevered through his allergies and was named to the 2010 High Performance List thanks to HAYGAIN. The HAYGAIN keeps my horses healthy and happy giving them the competitive edge they need to succeed." Sinead Halpin, International Event Rider, Trainer and Board of Director for the Professional Riders' Organization of Gladstone, New Jersey
• "We are very pleased with the improvement of my daughter's Welsh pony, Belle, since we began using our HAYGAIN system. The COPD symptoms have decreased 80% and the pony's endurance has improved. We have finally found the answer to managing COPD. Thanks to HAYGAIN, the pair is back to competing, and we are all smiles!" Gayle Heiring of Mundelein, Illinois
