It depends where you live. My cows are outside year round. When it is cold and wet and their hide gets soaked they don't like it. They don't like hot neither but they just have to take it. If I had a small herd 20-40 cows, in your snow & rain country I'd keep them in tie stalls. I'd turn them out for exercise a few minutes every morning while I cleaned the stable and plan to calve after they were turned out on pasture. I don't like free-stall setups. They are always cold and damp and the floor covered in excrement. The only reason cows use the stalls is because it's the best place to lie down. If you do a good job of cleaning the alleys and a poor job of bedding the stalls the cows will lie in the alleys.
