Just a hypothetic question (hypothetical to me, anyway, as I do not own a barn!):
Some barns have a separate turnout area (a small pasture, not just a run) for each horse, and/or routinely turn horses out separately a few days out of the week. Other barns pasture all of their horses together, or else specific groups of horses (all mares, all geldings, whatever).
I don't mean mares and foals or stallions; I mean horses that *could* be turned out with others, but that instead are given their own turnout area.
If money and space were no object, which setup would you prefer, and why?
