How much do you pay per month for your grass livery and what do you get included?


I also wondered how many times a week you poo pick your field?

Thanks in advance

We pay £25.00 a week for our field, includes use of the school and tying your horse up outside a stable if necc. Quite expensive i suppose but we've got a good field with very goog grazing and our girls are happy there so worth it.
We poo pick once or twice everyday, i hate seeing horses out in fields full of droppings and it's only like mucking out a stable minus the wee!! xxx
 
I pay about £20 week per horse which includes daily checks, water, hay if needed, use of school and lights and often a stable to use if required
 
When my mare goes on grass livery next week whilst I go back to England will be paying roughly £15 a week. This includes hay, health checks, exercising, poo picking and the use of the facilities (arena, XC course etc). Will also be covered by their insurance so any vets fee (quickly prays are not needed) will be covered.
 
I am lucky enough that i dont have to pay... but my friend pays 10 per week per horse for not much!
I think if it a basic field + water it is approx ten pound. Shelter also, more 15 and then if you are lucky enough to have poo picking and/or sand school more £25 per week.
 
I'm currently paying £25 a week, that is me rarely seeing the horse, so it is checked daily and has adlib big bale hay.

Soon he will be moving to DIY grass at £17.50 a week, plus £1 per day when they are hayed (which would also include a quick check).

Neither are poo-picked. They are herds in large acreage that is rotated and harrowed.
 
I pay £70 a month. He's out with three other horses on good grazing and the field is poo picked twice a day in the week by the other grass liveries and I do it at weekends. I also get ab lib hay.
 
I pay £25 per horse which includes sole use of 'my' 7 acre field on which I have put a shelter. Parking for my trailer, use of sand school and 300 acres of off road hacking with XC jumps.

No checking and I provide my own hay but s'OK with me as I control it.

I have 2 horses on this space so don't poo pick. Will harrow later on.
 
I ask because the only grass livery I know of near me charges £35 per week and that includes use of indoor and outdoor arena but only winter haylage none in the summer.
 
i paid £50 month with automatic field trough and hay when i wanted it, non horsey farm so i done as i pleased basically, farmers house was next door to field so supervision round the clock. poo picked every 2nd day but it was only my 13hh pony that lived in the field.
 
I charge £25 a week which is turn out in groups in fields upto 11acres which includes daily checks and use of all facilities inc walker, school, solarium etc. We also bring the horses in and turn out when they need to be shod. Are not poo picked as are so large but are harrowed and rolled and hay only given when grass is running low.
 
Currently paying £15 a week, that includes hay/haylage and YO is happy to hold for vet/farrier at no extra charge and she'll do rugs in the morning if it's too cold (like it was last week) to change them when I get there at 6.30am. She also fills my waters and gets feed and carrots for me. I poo pick daily - my choice!
