New mom to ducks

[mertime]

Good evening, we are new to raising ducks and have found a lot of help on this site. We have 3 swedish runners that are about 4 months old. They have quickly become spoiled members of the family! They have a nice inside coop for bed time and a huge attached run with pond, they love having free range in the yard every afternoon. I worry about themduring the winter outside so welcome any suggestions!

Ducks are very hardy, much more so than chickens! They should be okay during the winter. Just make sure they have a place to stay out of the snow, preferably a place that does not get snow in the first place.
