Shires Carrot Ball is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 10.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great toy My horse on stall rest love this toy- it’s his favorite stall toy so far. The o ly down side is you need a bicycle tire or ball pump to inflate it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing!! Oh this is the winner!!! I've tried everything for my horse on stall rest and this is by far the winner!!! I've even had other carrot holders, but this one really keeps him satisfied!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Durable and adjustable challenge for horses I’ve owned this Shires carrot ball for over 2.5 years. It has lasted through three of my different horses. My current 17.1 hh OTTB LOOOVES it. He has figured out the easiest way to get the carrots freed up. He has a prominent parrot mouth with teeth pulled and he has ZERO difficulty getting to his carrots. You can add multiple slim ones in opposite direction in each slot and they still give the same challenge to your horse. I use all four openings to include the one on top that one attaches to rope for hanging.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Keeps deflating I purchased this for my horse who is on "stall arrest" due to injury. I cannot keep the thing inflated. Does mine have a faulty valve, or is there a trick to keeping it from deflating and having the carrots fall out?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Endless Entertainment I bought this in hopes it would give my stall bound horse some relief to his boredom. The result was nothing short of a comedy. He would spend hours with it trying to get the carrots. Now you have to buy Costco sized carrots so their harder to get out and yes you have to inflate it. My guy would get so irritated he would successfully tear it down and try and eat it and it had held up great!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Boredom breaker My horse enjoys trying to get the carrots out of this ball. Only thing I didn’t like is it does not come inflated which was a hassle I had to buy a pump to blow it up. Other than that horse loves it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My horse loves it! Finally a boredom breaker without relying on artificial ingredients, sugars, and expensive refills. Just fill with carrots and good to go

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Teaches patience! I have an extremely clever and easily frustrated QH. Usually toys aren't interesting enough or he masters them too quickly. I watched him try to get the carrots out for 45 minutes before he took a break to eat some hay (much less effort) but he still goes back and reattempts every day. Some of the reviews say that the carrots come out too easily and I think it's important to note that the tightness of the carrot fit is determined by how much you blow up the ball. If you're looking for a low challenge (you want them to actually get the carrots) you can inflate it a little less. Mine is blown up so that it is VERY difficult for me with my handy opposable thumbs and impossible for my poor horse to do much more than nibble them shorter. I actually feel a little bit guilty (but mostly amused). Great toy! Highly recommended.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Well made and tough, doesn't last long enough I have a busy mare, the more attention she gets and the more she has to do the happier she is. The ball takes really fat carrots, skinny carrots come out too easily. My mare cleans the carrots out in short order. She likes it, I wish it kept her busy longer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Horses LOVE it! I purchased this ball for my yearling. It keeps him busy! My other horse was on stall rest and loves his ball. It has held up well.
