Trying to get some opinions from fellow duck owners. I have two sets of ducklings right now. The first set is 7 weeks, the second set is 3 weeks. The 3 week old ducklings are quickly outgrowing their large tote brooder. The 7 week old ducklings have a much larger brooder but there is not room for 6 ducklings in there. I want to get the 7 week old babies outside this weekend so I can get the 3 week old babies in the bigger brooder - where I live it's going to be in the 60s during the day, but it'll be a low of 35 overnight over the weekend. I'm thinking/hoping if I put a couple heat lamps outside with them, they should be fine. There will be 2 adult ducks, and the 3 ducklings in this area outside. Everyone agree they'll be fine temperature wise overnight with assistance of heat lamps, or am i nuts?
