How cold does it need to be before I should worry about my ducks being outside? I live in Wisconsin and have 5 call ducks.
 
I'm in Wisconsin too. I don't have ducks but all the farmers around me do. All of them just have a place for them to get out of the elements. The one I saw up close used straw in hers, and hers is just like a dog house with no front on it.

Otherwise, that's all you'd need to do is give them a shelter to sleep in at night. I assume these are adults though that you have. Young ducklings would not be able to be outside in these temps.

What do you do with your ducksif it gets below zero? We've had it get so cold that school was canceled (-40 degrees 🥶).

My ducks survived that just fine (no losses) in an unheated shed/coop. They'll get out of the elements if they get cold or don't like the weather.
