There is just no pleasing them is there.......?

So ...... choice of 2 fields - 12 acres which they go out on everyday, but absolutely no shelter at all, (unless they can cram themselves under a single oak tree). Plus have to lead them down busy road - old boy not a problem, skittish 17.1 RID

- um - no. Or 2 acre sheltered field with 24 x 12 field shelter and bale of hay provided. So go for option 2, which last week was great - thanks mum, don't think the old git ventured further than the nearest puddle for a drink all day

. Just driven past on the way to work, so been out there 1 hour (were in the shelter stuffing there faces when I left) and both are camped out, heads down up the furthest end with signs on their foreheads saying please call the rspca...

So now I feel like a mean mum for not letting them out on the nice big field with all that grass.

I would not worry, if they prefer to stand out eating grass let them get on with it...but it is better that they have the option of hay and shelter to get away from it if the weather becomes too much...I think you have put them in the correct field to be honest!
My boy has a field stable that is open all the time with hay in it for him...but he has not once been in it all winter...prefers to stand out eating grass with his cosy rug on!
