Muscovy ducklings- do not want to leave their house

[Melissa Harris]

Hi, I'm new to duck ownership and I was wondering if it is normal for my 3, 5 week old Muscovy ducklings to prefer to sit in their house all day. They will come out when visited with food, and love their "pond" (kiddie pool), but will head straight back inside after their snack and and swim. Is this something they will grow out of when they are more comfortable and bigger? Is there something I can do to make them more comfortable outside? Thank you!!

They are scared and once they get more confident they will venture out for longer periods of time....Normal ....
