Approx age and when should they go outside?

Is there a secure door to the coop? Raccoons can tear through welded wire as well as many animals who can dig underneath it.

@Cas1829 ?

No there is not. However if a raccoon can get through that fencing than it could get through a door. Its tight fencing. Past ground line,wire over top, I have zip tied even smallest possible holes. It's as good as its gonna get.

Sad to say, a raccoon will be able to get through that fencing.

apparently unless I have it secured in a concrete box I'm not safe. Sorry for wasting all of your time and asking for some POSITIVE INPUT.

Were not trying to be negative, we just care about the well being of your ducks.

I'm just letting you know all the work you've done to raise those ducklings will be all gone in one night if a raccoon gets in their which it can.

I stopped having ducks 13 yrs ago because I kept losing them to predators. It is very hard to keep ducks safe. We are not trying to be negative but we have been there. I know you want your ducks to swim on the pond because that is where they love to be. But at night time they need a safe place. I have fought raccoons for 20 plus years, they are the ultimate predator with strength you cannot believe and they do not give up. We just want your ducks to be safe so you can enjoy them.
