Pound sign on my laptop doesnt work!!

Part Livery 80 (mates rates at YO's place)
Shoes 0 (barefoot pony, trimmed by fully trained fellow livery)
Bedding and feed included in livery.
Extraflex HA supplement 20 per month

So around 120 per month, lovely pony, chunky good doer who is 20 years old so doesnt need insuring either!

I thought I'd give this a go, although I'm a bit scared at what it'll work out! O.k so based on 3 ponies (2 MGA ponies, one little sec a lead rein pony) So this is based over the summer as I have only just started to bring them in.

D.I.Y Livery £230 p/month (5 weeks)
Shoeing £130 p/month
Feed £30p/month
S'ments £30p/month
Hay £20p/month
Shavings £20p/month (for comps were I had to stable)
Wormers £10 (spread over the year)
Insurance £54 p/month
Entry fee's & diesel £300 p/month

OMG thats £824 and thats not including any extras such as tack, rugs. Yeah am wishing I hadnt done that, however I don't compete again unitil March/April time maybe I'll try and save the entry fees and diesel costs and see how much I get by then!

For one horse... (i don't think I"m going to like this)

DIY livery - 80 per month (includes use of indoor and outdoor school, big stable, access to jumps etc)
Straw - 36 per month
Haylage - 40 per month
Shoes - 40 per month (more if I have stud holes put in)
Insurance - 35 per month
Hard feed (including oil/salt etc) - 14 per month
Entry fees - 40 per month

285 in total - and this doesn't include wormers, bits and bobs, ebay impulse buys etc... OMG! And yep, I remember the days when DIY livery was like 30 pounds a month for a field...

Fortunately I work most of my shoes/livery/straw/haylage costs off at my yard and I also get to join in some lessons for free which helps to keep the costs down for me.
