Best Answer

If your horse is kept in a stall then he needs turn out time every day if possible. If he has a stall-paddock combination then every other day. Turn out time is vital for the horse's physical and menal health. If you have access to a covered arena or round pen this is a good alternative in bad weather. For show horses or horses with a strenuous job a longer- term turn out will help relieve stress and rest overtaxed joints and muscles. Many show horses are turned out for several months before the next show season starts.

Yes, they should. They need the excercise to stay fit. In the wild pregnant mares stay out all the time. Horses really haven't changed that much from the wild horses, and they are actually better off outside.
