Agistment for ponies and hacks..... situated between Dubbo and Gilgandra.

As well as agisting thoroughbreds, we do agistment for ponies and hacks. 

Discounts are available for clients with two or more horses.  We have put the costs below and have put charges for doing the work on a daily basis.  This way, you can calculate your costs.  Most riders who reside in Dubbo or Gilgandra are happy to do their own horse on the weekend or even through the week. 

Riders have the use of dressage arenas and all the other facilities. We have a limited number of individual feed lockers for people to keep their feed, saddle and bridle in.

We have two grass  dressage arenas.  One full size of  20m x 60m and the other of 20m x 40m. 

Feed is available from the stud and can be delivered to your locker for you. 

All paddocks are safely fenced with electric wire, sighter wires and white tops on posts.  Below is a shot of one of the posts used.

All accounts are payable one month in advance.  Statements are sent on the 15th of the month with payment due by the last day of the month.  5% interest will be charged on overdue accounts.

If you have one of the "Do It Yourself Paddocks" and wish us to feed, your horse as well as clean the paddock it will be charged at $5.00 for doing it once per day.  If you wish us to also rug and unrug and feed twice a day it will cost $10.00 per day.  This takes into account that the horse may need to be brushed to remove loose dirt to be rugged up again at night.

All animals are drenched upon arrival and quarantined for 14 days to protect Chittering Gully livestock and it's clients' investments.  Worming will occur at regular 8 week intervals, throughout the year at owners cost. 

Vaccinations for tetanus and strangles need to be up to date and a veterinary certificate provided before any horse is accepted.  Vets will be used from either Dubbo or Gilgandra at owners cost.

 

Shared Paddock only 

If you choose paddock only, the horses will be rotated around the property into different paddocks, ensuring they have fresh grass on a continuing basis.  The property has a generous number of shade trees and has an assortment of grasses in the pasture.  Horses will be brought back close to the main facilities for the weekends. 

Cost $25.00 per week.  

 

Do It Yourself  Solution.

Private Paddocks, with trees for shelter.

Individual paddocks of approximately 2 acres.  Plenty of tree shelter and shade.  You are expected to look after your own horse, and supply its feed, which can be put in your own lock up locker.  Paddocks are to be cleaned daily. 

Cost is $25.00  for paddock per week

 

Ponies With Hay

Ponies are in a shared paddock system.  Hay is put in a hay feeder, allowing even shy feeders time to eat.  This eliminates bossy horses commandeering all the feed.  We do not feed on the ground as this can result in some horses ingesting dirt resulting in sand colic.  Very large paddock with lots of tree shelter.

Cost is $60.00 per week including hay.

 

For the retired horse

If you have a loved horse that is no longer an active ride, then we are happy to spell it for you.  As you won't be using the arenas or the other facilities, we are happy to provide your trusted friend with a quiet paddock at a reduced cost.  We try to keep any of the older ones in an area by themselves

Cost for paddock  is  $20.00 .  Any extra hay to be at clients cost, and will be put in a hay feeder in the paddock.   

 

Additional services.

Veterinary, farrier and teeth will be done at clients expense.  Small charge if you can't be here to assist provider of service required.  It is your choice whether they come from Gilgandra or Dubbo.
