Flying the Coop! Nighttime Rituals?

[CandQ]

Well, Cheese and Quackers are finally old enough - and by far big enough! - to move outside. Mommy is feeling quite a lot of Empty Nest sadness, but I know they're going to be so happy out there
New question: Do they need food and water at night? Or can we prolong the cleanliness of their little duck house by only having water and food in their outside pen that they'll be in morning to night?

I was wondering the same thing! I feed my chickens at night, but it would be great if we didn't have to. It seems like you'd have to but I've never had ducks before.
