Mickey (12.2hh pony) is £30 for a full set and Bigger horses are £50, or £55 with studs. They are all shod every 6 weeks. Tilly is only trimmed as she isnt in work so is only £12 every 6-8 weeks.
If you paid for a ponies shoes in lui of weekly lessons you'd probably save more (but then lessons round here at a rc start at about £15 for 30 mins - much cheaper to keep your own imo!!). If you set aside £10-£12 a week then that should easily cover a ponies shoes.
i used to pay £60 for whole set either with new or old ones put back on. just got new farrier though n will prob be more as he shoes for the likes of Andrew Nicholson!!

OMG just shows how much can change in 4 years! used to be £42 for a new set when i had my own! think i need a few more years saving till i can afford to buy again!
£58 for new set, £52 for re-fits. I usualy have new for the sake of £6!!!
Trim used to be £12, but that was about 18months ago when little bro had ponio, prob gone up since then!!!
£48 for a smallish horse 15hh with bog standard shoes no studholes or road studs. £55 for a large horse with feet the size of dinner plates with a stud in each foot. A trim is £15
Most expensive (and best qualified) farrier out here charges $70 so.... about £12 for a full set.
Other farriers are cheaper.
