The Buyyah Wall-Mounted Hay Rack is a carbon steel feeder designed for goats, sheep, and other small to mid-size livestock in barns, sheds, and outdoor pens. It mounts to a wall to free up floor space and holds 25 gallons of hay for all-day feeding.
Up to 5 animals can eat simultaneously from the multi-sided frame. This feeder is available in multiple width sizes, so confirm the size you are ordering matches your wall space and herd needs before purchasing.

Feeding a Small Herd Without Dominant Animals Controlling the Bunk
If you manage a mixed group of goats where some animals push others away from a shared feed station, the wall-mount design with multiple access points helps distribute feeding positions along the rack.
Animals can approach from different sides rather than competing at a single opening, which gives less assertive animals a better chance to eat. For a herd of 5 or fewer, one unit provides adequate simultaneous access. For larger groups of 8 to 10 animals, planning for multiple units or staggered feeding will serve your herd better than relying on a single rack.
What to Expect from the Buyyah Wall-Mounted Hay Rack in Real Use
For goat operations, the feeder functions as intended when assembly goes smoothly and wall anchors are solid. Buyers report it works well for keeping hay accessible and off the ground, and one buyer specifically noted it helped distribute feeding access among a group, reducing competition at the bunk.
Assembly experience varies. Some buyers found it quick and straightforward. Others encountered difficulty with the push-button connectors used to join sections, reporting the buttons did not seat properly and required repeated attempts to assemble.
One buyer described the finished unit as loose rather than rigid after a difficult assembly process. Upgrading to higher-quality wall anchors beyond what is included is something at least one buyer recommends for a more secure installation.
The claim that the feeder accommodates 10 goats simultaneously is not consistent with real-world use. A buyer managing 10 goats confirmed the rack does not serve the full herd at once, though it remains useful for smaller groups within that herd.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size Buyyah hay rack should you choose for a small goat herd?
The 25-inch size with its 25-gallon capacity and 5-animal simultaneous feeding access is the better fit for a small herd of 4 to 6 animals. The 16-inch size works for tighter spaces or as a supplemental feeder.
If you are managing more than 6 animals, purchasing two units and spacing them along the same wall gives each animal consistent access and reduces competition at feeding time.
Can you use the Buyyah wall hay rack outdoors?
Yes. The carbon steel frame is described as rust-resistant and the feeder is rated for both indoor and outdoor use in farm, shed, and courtyard environments. For outdoor installations exposed to rain, positioning the rack under a roof overhang or covered structure will extend the finish life and keep hay dry. The wall-mount design also keeps the feeder stable in open-sided structures where a freestanding feeder might tip.
What type of wall anchors work best for installing this hay rack?
The feeder includes screws and basic hardware for installation. For walls that will see regular animal pressure, such as wooden fence boards, barn framing, or concrete block, upgrading to higher-rated wall anchors appropriate for your wall material is a practical step.
Standard drywall anchors are not suitable for livestock feeders. Match your anchor type to the wall surface and factor in the weight of a full hay load plus animal contact pressure when selecting fasteners.
