Duck coop winter in wisconsin

[Kbierman94]

I only have 2 ducks. This will be my females first winter and want to make sure they stay warm seeing that they may be in "extreme cold" for weeks at a time potentially. I have a radiant heater set at 140 in their coop, which makes the coop not warm but not freezing. I am getting a under the bowl water heater so the water doesn't freeze. They tend to not use the coop(at least the last 8 months). I just want to know if I'm doing to much or not enough. I know ducks can deal with some harsh temperatures but want to make sure I'm not missing anything.i have pictures but can't seem to post them on here yet. Its a hit about 4×4×4 that has little steps up do it only less than a ft off the ground

As long as they are out of the wind they shouldn't need a heater.
