ABSTRACT:
A livestock feeder for retaining hay so that livestock can consume the hay without trampling thereon is disclosed which includes a plurality of spatially disposed leg member and a plurality of substantially horizontally, spatially disposed retainer members connectable to the leg members. The retainer members are fabricated of a polymeric material having angular deflection characteristics and memory so that the retainer members can be angularly deflected by pressures exerted thereon and restored to a substantially non-deflected position when such pressures are removed.
