Our dear sweet Martha, who is our smallest duck, has been molting during the coldest temps we have had all winter. It's been mostly single digits F at night and teen or low 20s during the day--so not dangerously cold by any stretch, but we still feel for her!

She's been taking advantage of the Sweeter Heater, but she's always up for a walk in the snow, a swim and, of course, Soup for Ducks!

Her new flight feathers are going to be gorgeous! :)
 
my smallest duck is molting too lol luckily they don’t go outside for more than 10 minutes a day during the winter (it was -2 the other night she would’ve hated it out there)
