I put 26 americanaus that were 4 weeks old outside in less than that temps with a heatlamp in the coop if they felt the need and they have all adjusted fine and are doing well till this day.. but soon mine will have to deal with -45 or below temps so I guess get em used to it they will...

you can also get the heaters for stock tanks prolly at your TSC to keep the water thawed its used for stock tanks in colder climates.

i made this ramp its has some bricks in the ramp to use less sand and some logs too, the sand is mixed gravel and sand capped on the top the ducks tend to mess it up so I fix it once a week.

pellet gun or airsoft should learn the predators a lesson.. but you could chicken wire the bottom and use sand or another media to coat the floor bottom so they can adequately scratch.

on my days off I sit in the run with mine and feed them grass and sit there and have a few cold ones for a few hours a day if not multiple times a day its rather relaxing to just hang with my "peeps" and watch them do their thing. (I am off 15 days a month so I guess thats alot of time :P )
