No, not in a true sense.. we just turn them out together since they're not 
inclined to hurt each other.

Well after a long confinament.. or if it's really cold and Tush is in heat.. 
she'll get going and I'll have to stop her and pull her out.. She's inflamed 
the growth plate in one of her knees a couple of times already from getting 
carried away.. so it's something I have to watch till next year. 
 
They're actually stalled on oposite sides of the stable.

Yep.

Well Straw got cut late...  and he's tried to mount another filly.. he's only 
started to drop twice with Tush and got snarled at by me.. ;)
 
He's listening to me.. so.. ;)
