Since they are now exactly 3 weeks old, outgrowing their brooder, and VERY messy, I was thinking of putting them out in the coop this week. However, the temperatures are going to be down in the mid to high 50s', and they don't have any feathers yet (not counting the spiky quills that are coming in). Also, our wiring in our barn isn't very dependable, so I'm not sure if a heat lamp would function out there. Is it too chilly to put my ducklings out, or are they old enough to withstand cooler temperatures? Thanks so much.
