The flats and part of the hill, are divided into a number of small paddocks, post and rail fenced and are used for the mares and foals during their early development, and offer a safe, well protected environment. The western hill paddocks provide an excellent area for the continued balanced growth after weaning, developing strong healthy yearlings.

Further yearling paddocks are being developed on the eastern side of Spring Creek, as well as more Broodmare paddocks. Palmaday, has an excellent supply of good quality water from its interlinked bores on Spring Creek, as well as a fully independent supply for irrigation. The quality of this supply being so good that it is also used for domestic purposes at the houses at Palmaday.
