My horses used to be hard fed, yarded, turned out etc. They were healthy and cared for daily. They had so many injuries in a ridiculously safe, well-made place over one year it wasn't funny. One horse had a low immunity and took a long time to overcome his injuries. Most of them were scrapes, cuts, that kind of thing, but we had colic, stomach ulcers, bites, kicks etc.
Changed their lifestyle to a 25acre paddock with good fences and plenty of grass - one major injury (by which I mean I called the vet for advice). Just one. They're also mentally happier, more relaxed and in better shape.
