How cold is to cold?

So I have a 4 month old khaki that has been living rent free in my house because of the harsh Canadian winter, it now only gets to -20 C at night, fairly nice during the day. -9 C and lower. My question is can she stay outside? I have posted a photo of her

Might I add it doesn’t ALWAYS hit -20,

I'd hold off a bit more, that's still really cold for a duck that hasn't been acclimated to it. I'm in the same situation with very loud bantam cockerels in my place right now, and I can't wait for Spring!!!

On the milder days, you may want to let her out a little bit, under supervision, and let the flock see her.

Ok thank you so much!!! I had a hen go broody in October and than left the eggs half way threw so I had incubated them, and she was the only survivor.

Yeah, I was kinda dumb and couldn't let my OEGB eggs go to omelets.

I also had a KC duckling in the Fall, but thankfully was able to toss her out on her tail feathers before winter hit hard!

Let her stay rent free a little longer -- she will love you for it!!
