I have 5 ducks. 3 mallards who are 3 weeks and 2 khaki who are 4 weeks. When can they go outside? It's in 50s during say and 30s-40s at night.
400


Here is pic of my forecast
 
Will they have a heat lamp outside?
 
I plan to put mine out on thursday when things warm up a bit. In a draftless shed with a heat lamp. If the temps get much below freezing at night, though, I may bring them back in.
 
yeah I plan on giving them a heat lamp, but I dont htink they are comepletely feathered out either. it's hard to tell...they are too scared of us to let us hold them. so i will be doing some socialization when they are outside, here is an updated picture




they just have a 50 wat heat lamp in their brooder now and it keeps it around 70 and they are never under it.
