Hello all, I have 4 ducklings and 1 gosling. 2 Saxony and 2 Cayugas.
On Wednesday they will all be 3 weeks old and I wanted to know when they could be moved outside into a pen ( with a house of course) and be shut into their house at night with a heat lamp. I live in Maine, there is no snow on the ground, temps are running from 50-60 during the day (sometimes 45) and around 28-30 degrees at night. I had planned to move them out into a pen next week when they turn 4 weeks but wasn't sure if that's to early for them or not.
