| 20120079987 | Nyjer or thistle seed bird feeder - A sock-like bird feeder comprising a tubular feeder body constructed of flexible cloth, fabric or lightweight plastic which may be folded, flattened or collapsed for storage and/or shipment. One or more feed baffles are positioned in the interior of the feeder body and are constructed of a cloth or fabric material. The flexible nature of the feed baffles permits the feed baffles to also be flattened, folded or collapsed along with the feeder body for storage and/or shipment. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20120227671 | Texas HayNet - The Texas HayNet is a durable netting configured to fit over a round bale of hay that is up to six and a half foot tall. The netting is made of a proprietary blend of hemp and plastic threads to provide durability with the net openings calibrated to hold the hay intact and allow livestock to eat at a measured pace. The net is secured to the bale by two pairs of drawstrings on the circumference of the netting. The net is sufficiently flexible as to maintain the shape of the bale and the availability of feed as livestock consume the bale. | 09-13-2012 |
| 20120266824 | DISPOSABLE HANGABLE ANIMAL FOOD DISPENSER - Provided is an animal food dispenser for dispensing food to animals such as rabbits. The dispenser comprises a package for holding the animal food; an attachment means secured to the package for attaching the animal food dispenser to an enclosure and reconfigurable to adapt to different types of enclosures, such as a rabbit cage; a window through the package; and a window cover removeably attachable to the package for covering the window. The window cover is at least partially removable from the package to provide access through the window to the animal food held in the package. | 10-25-2012 |
| 20130055957 | Hay Net - Example hay nets for providing hay to horses are disclosed. A disclosed example hay net includes a mesh body forming a bag, having a securing member at a first position relative to the body of the net, a mouth formed at a second position relative to the body of the net, the first position being spaced from the second position, and a strap engaging the net adjacent the first position to secure the strap relative to the body of the net adjacent the first position, and engaging the net adjacent the second position to secure the strap relative to the body of the net adjacent the second position, wherein the length of the strap between the first and second positions is variable whilst maintaining engagement between the strap and the net adjacent both the first and second positions. | 03-07-2013 |
| 20130112148 | Horse Feeder - The present invention relates to an animal feeder for the controlled consumption of hay or similar feed to a horse, other equidae or similar grazing animal. The invention provides such feeders in the form of flexible receptacles having an area of open mesh through which the animal consumes the contents of the receptacle over predetermined period of time dependant upon the size of the mesh openings chosen. Such feeders are configured such that a feeding animal in a standing position can only access feed disposed within the receptacle when the feeding animal's head is lowered in a natural feeding headset. | 05-09-2013 |
| 20150122188 | FEED-SAVING APPARATUS AND METHOD - In some embodiments, a livestock-feeding apparatus includes an upper frame, a lower frame; and a netting that connects the upper frame and the lower frame together such that the livestock-feeding apparatus has a three-dimensional geometric shape. In some embodiments, a livestock-feeding apparatus includes a clam-shell frame, wherein the clam-shell frame is configured to provide an open position for the apparatus and a closed position for the apparatus, and a netting attached to the clam-shell frame such that the netting is folded upon itself to form a bag that hangs from the clam-shell frame. In some embodiments, a method of feeding livestock includes providing an upper frame and a lower frame, connecting the upper frame to the lower frame with a netting to form a three-dimensional geometric shape, and containing a collection of animal feed within the three-dimensional geometric shape. | 05-07-2015 |
| 20150128867 | Feeding Apparatus, Method, and System - A feed bag apparatus may generally be described. The feed bag apparatus may include a fabric bag, the fabric bag having a sealable opening proximate a top portion of the bag, a tapered shape terminating at a bottom portion of the bag, an opening at the bottom portion of the bag that facilitates a gravity feed for food, and a hollow interior of the bag. The feed bag apparatus may further have a number of grommets located on a top portion of the fabric bag proximate the sealable top portion, the grommets facilitating coupling of the fabric bag to a support. Additionally, the feed bag apparatus may be substantially waterproof and weatherproof. | 05-14-2015 |
| 20160106062 | EASY FILL HAY NET - A hay net for feeding livestock including a bag member, a closure assembly and an annular member. The bag member has a peripheral wall with first and second ends and an interior space for holding a quantity of hay. An opening to the interior space is defined in the first end and the second end is permanently closed. The closure assembly selectively controls access to the opening. The annular member is engaged with a circumferential region of the bag member that is located a distance inwardly from the first end. The annular member maintains the circumferential region and thereby the associated region of the interior space defined thereby in an open position at all times. When the opening is in the open position, hay may readily and rapidly be placed into the interior space through the held-open circumferential region while the user holds onto the annular member. | 04-21-2016 |
