Hi and welcome to Yarrabee Farms website.
We are Alison, Stuart and Jessica; we moved to Ballan about 10 years ago with the aim of starting up a high quality horse agistment property. We decided to do this after we were living in Melbourne and had our horses agisted at different properties over the years. We realized none of them really supplied the love, care and attention our horses deserved.
WE DECIDED WE CAN DO IT BETTER!
One of the annoying things we found was that, agisting a horse was never a set fee, there was always the paddock fee plus extras such as, taking rugs off and putting back on, feeding and holding horses for a farrier or dentist. We also found that, when we went up on the weekends to be with our horses, we would spend more than 3 hours picking up manure and general cleaning, so this would limit the amount of quality time we had to share with our horses.
We realize that life can stop you from seeing your horse/s everyday, which is why our agistment is a set fee. You only pay for the agistment and your horses feed and general care, farrier, dentist etc. Agistment includes cleaning paddocks, worming, feeding, rugging, holding and any other requirements your horse may need, unlike other agistment places we specialize to your needs. (check our agistment page for more information)
We have many years dealing with horses, Jessica has a Diploma of Agriculture and Horse Studies / Breeding and has worked at several prestigious horse studs and riding schools. We can help you build confidence with your horse and help you with your horses dietary requirements. We can also assist with any necessary injections your horse may need and also with changing any dressings.
Whether your horse be in high work, low work, suffering from founder, colic or other various diseases - WE CAN HELP!
We cater for horses of any age, breed and gender (stallions must be well handled, which we have experience in).
You will feel secure in the knowledge that your horse is well looked after, even if you want to go away on holidays, you will know your horse is cared for and safe! and you won't come back to a HUGE surprise on your bill!
Contact us to arrange a visit!
We love all animals - below are some of our pets.
