You can offer and see if they want to come outside but I would force them. At 6 weeks they should be fully feathered If your heat lamp puts out light even red they will most likely get up and eat then sleep and up and eat then sleep. Just the way ducks are.
Once you take the lamp away and the food and water they will sleep most likely. With one eye open.
i brought them out, while i was out getting dog food i found a bigger baby pool for them and got home filled it for them and they were out for 2 hours. i remember you advising me to get niacin bc of theirnfeet issues about 2 weeks ago, its done a difference im so happy. theyre so happy and full of life. theyre my therapy<3 its currently 12am 59 degrees and ive had the heat lamp on since 9pm when they got put to the coop so im thinking of going and turning it off. they sure have tripled the size in 2 weeks.
