I pay £50pw for assisted livery which includes mucking out mon-thurs, turning out/bringing in mon-fri haylage included and the use of facilities. I buy my own feeding and shavings

I pay £1.50 per day on top of my standard livery bill to have my pony brought in, feet picked out, a fresh haynet hung and rug changed if required.

Depends what you include. Some around here are literally bring in with hooves picked out or turnout (if you leave turnout rug on).... some are brought in, hooves picked out, brushed/hosed off and rugs changed.

Ibblebibble - how much are YOU saving her on fuel each time she doesn't have to come up to lob hers out?
That is at least what you ought to charge daily as 'mates rates'

Not sure what you meant about the hay & feed - are you supplying?
If so, how much are you using?
A std small bale is at least £5 per bale currently & you'd be using more than 1 a week at present.

Completely variable !!

At my yard it is £90 a week. It includes all hay & feed plus giving hay/feed am&pm. Includes a to or bi plus rugs. Includes sorting out vet/farrier. Essentially everything bar muck out and bedding.

I buy in round bales of hay for £20 a bale and use about 1 a week but i have 3 of mine to feed too and 2 of mine both at double the amount hers does. I buy in the feed too and hers is only given a token feed to keep him quiet while mine are fed.
