how much do you pay for a trim??

[itsme123]

I've been trying to find a farrier to come to new place when i move the pony.

Have been quoted everything from £20 (but doesnt do that area) to (wait for it!) £39.50!

Thankfully farrier I know has said he'll come out, but... wondering if that sort of price is usual??

 

[oofadoofa]

Mine charges £13

 

[Chestnutmare]

my farrier charges me £20 for a trim and he's brilliant!

 

[Amys_Babies]

I get charged £10 for trim but depending how many are needed to be done sometimes he charges even less.

 

[MrsMozartletoe]

£20 I think. But he does a number of horses when he comes out

.

 

[jesterfaerie]

£20 but always does my horse for free and just charges for my pony - pony feet grows stupidly quick my horse's stupidly slow.

 

[Mrs. Glittery Jingle Balls]

E25 over here in the emerald isle - but think should actually be charged at least E125 for one of the donkeys - takes the poor lad as long to do that little wretch as it does to do one other donkey and 2 horses!

 

[sandr]

£20 for a trim.

 

[vallin]

£20

 

[Ellies_mum2]

If there are a lot to trim then £10. If only a couple then £15

OP Can I ask who you are using at the moment please? PM if you prefer

I was paying £15 but my farrier has just moved to cornwall, bugger!! Now having to pay £20. The biggest hurt is my old farrier was only £45 a set and my new one is £70!!!!

 

[ofcourseyoucan]

£25 for a trim, £70 for a set, £47.50 for fronts and trim behind, extra for road pins and stud holes. and i wouldnt change my farrier for love nor money! even if he runs late and is sometimes grumpy! he does a brilliant job!

 

[irishdraught]

£20 for a trim
£60 for a set of shoes, hot shod

 

[JenTaz]

i dont pay to get my pony trimmed my farrier does that for free and does her front shoes for free too untill she needs new shoes which get refitted every 8 weeks but for my big lad its a new set at £65 every six weeks usually has to come out more often to put one back on

 

[Tormenta]

Fiver for my lickle ones. Tenner for the biggies. He adds on if any are arsey, fifteen quid last time one of my mares decided she didn't want to give him back feet. I love my farrier, great guy and good with the horses.

 

[Cazza525]

£10 for a trim down in devon. I've known farrier 20 years mind and he'll trim big, small, good as gold, or little b*****d for that!

 

[freckles22uk]

Nothing, I do all my own..... you should see the state of the spanish horses feet... no way am I letting the local farrier near mine!!

That would be TheFarrier from on here then? he's good isn't he, did mine for the first time this week, hooves already look much better

 

[laurenn1010]

£10 for trim
£30 for full set !

 

[janet68]

£18 for big man and £20 for clydesdales plates

 

[palomino698]

£20

 

[FloydsMum]

£15

 

[TallyHo123]

£10 think its more for bigger feet

 

[Indy]

for the boys it ranges between £15 to £20.For my shetland it can be anything from nothing to £15. I think it must depend what sort of mood he is on the day!

 

[Honeypots]

I don't...I do it myself (well a I rasp them myself...every couple of weeks)

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

£20

 

[amandaco2]

£25 trim
£85 for full set shoes.

 

[Theresa_F]

Obviously Essex is expensive. I pay £24 for Chancer - gypsy cob and £30 for Farra, who though is a clydesdale is only just 17 hands and does not have that big a set of feet.

Still he does a good job and always turns up on time and will do Saturdays so I won't change him.

 

[Fransurrey]

£15, unless it's just a rasp around, when he charges me £7. He does charge travel though, at £15. He turns up early, if anything, though and is coming out tomorrow to help me out, so no complaints, here!
