I've noticed little Polly Pocket (Shetland) becoming increasingly greedy at feed times and poor Murphy (gelded donkey) isn't getting his fair share, I'm currently 'managing' the situation by standing between them 
It occurred to me that nose bags might be an ideal solution (and will hopefully help Polly's handling no end) but I'm struggling to find any other than one for horses.
Can anyone tell me if this would be okay for a Shetland pony and a donkey or point me in the direction of a supplier please?
Thanks in advance x

Why don't you just tie them up? That's what I do with mine

I always wonder about nose bags .
Once it is on , a horse has to breath in the bag , and that would mean any dust , bits of chaff etc , are going to end up in the horses lungs !
I know mine blow rolled oats or barley all over the place when eating and i assume a bit goes up their nose . But eating from a bucket , they can just lift their head up and out of the bucket .
Maybe i am just being  too fussy ? Could never test it with mine though , they would go ballistic if i stuck a bag on their noses ! lol , so i just do as you do Karen , and stand between them , only got two now , so it is a bit easier .
Maybe mix extra chaff with the oats ( or whatever feed they are on ) , in greedy guts's bucket , so donkey no nuts , can get  through his faster ?

im thinking a Shetland doesn't need any hardfeed at all. have you a stable to house the one who needs feed?
I don't feed hard feed to any of my ponies as they turn into evil buggers at a sight of a bucket and it makes handling the quiet ones dangerous as the bullies will kick them out of the way, and I don't like being trampled anymore. especially my fattest mare - she is horrid with food jealously.
the only ones who get a tiny feed are ones who have been ridden - they will stand and wait once their bridle is off so I feel guilty then if they get nothing.

but yes - tie them up or put one in a stable.
