Sometimes I'm not sure if muscovies even know how dangerous the cold is hahaha! The girls like to perch on the balcony and deck rail when they refuse to go to bed, it takes a lotta persistence to get em to finally go into the coop

Update: Cheese has been deployed! I put him in the coop and put the hanging feeder and some fresh water back in for them today. I don't think he was happy to leave the warmer house but he was excited to see his family :) Him and his sister Burger kept wagging their tails and head bobbing...
