Did not even last 12 hours

The jaw portion of it was a little too loose in my opinion as the horse I put it on has a very average sized and shaped head and it was a bit baggy at the throat. I turned them out at 7pm in it for one night and it was off by 6am the next day. I found it completely shredded to pieces. He is not overly tough on his blankets and other fly mask so it was a big surprise to see it in literal pieces after less than 12hours of wear

Pros
  • Easy to slip right over my ponies nose and ears.
Cons
  • Used this for my mini horse who kept pulling it off. Wont buy again. Doesnt work well enough

Works well and keeps flys away from eyes and ears

Seems to be constructed well and keeps the flys away from the ponies eyes and ears. While it doesn’t reduce the effectiveness at all, the netting over the ears is very long and makes the ponies ears look as long as my miniature donkeys. It will easily snag on things allowing it to be pulled off. In about 2 or 3 weeks if use, I have had to find it twice after finding her in the pasture without the mask. Don’t know how that could be eliminated. Could be an issue to find it in a really large…

Pros
  • December 9, 2020
Cons
  • The teal color may be unappealing to some horse owners and may clash with certain coat colors

This mask washed well & actually fit as it should.

My pony needed his eye protected while it was treated for an infection . The bug eye feature was perfect for keeping the eye aerated and not allowing the mask to stick to the medication . it was inexpensive but so far has stood up to several washings and paddock mates have not been able to pull it off .

Pros
  • My horse with a bad eye
Cons
  • Flies still goes in… there’s still a gap.

First mask my horse keeps on!

Literally the first mask ever, that is always on my horse's head and not lying out in the pasture somewhere. The mask may obstruct the horse's vision, leading to tripping or other accidents.

Huge for a mini: my feedback

The item was huge for a mini, it needed serious alterations, although there is some stretch to it, it was so big the stretch didn’t matter. The gaps are so large that flies go in and get trapped with the minis eyes. Found it discarded on the ground multiple times a day, and it already has holes. He has worn it less than a week. Won’t be buying that again.

Pros
  • Nice product but it stretches out. Haven’t washed it yet
Cons
  • The masks were easily torn amd didn’t last two weeks.
