Dumb question...rain

[Redbirdacres]

Ok dumb question as a new duck mama. My 7 don't have their big ducky house yet, we're building it this week. So they stay in the garage and during the day the go outside. I built a large ex pen from dog gates and there's a pool for them to go in. It's very overcast, cool, and raining on and off all day today....do I put them outside?? They're about 9 weeks. Will they get filthy muddy or will they love it and go in the pool and clean off? Like I said...new mama, please don't laugh at me. OK you can, but not hard.

They're ducks, as long as they have most of their feathers, they should be fine.

This. I feel like at 9 weeks they’re good to go. They’ll have a blast. They’ll likely get muddy. But they’ll be happy

Mine are 5 weeks old and happily took a shower in the rain yesterday but it's a bit warm here. At 9 weeks I'm sure yours are mostly feathered?
