I currently live in northern Iowa, it’s been known to get pretty chilly up here, it goes into the negatives every so often. So what can I do with my ducks? What is the coldest they can stand? I plan on having heated water bowls and a heater inside where the nest at night but how much can they really take? And what about letting them roam? Is the cold ground bad for their feet? I was think that since I only have 2 ducks for the time being that I could possibly move them into my basement or my garage for the coldest months but I’m not sure how much it would smell as they are still in a brooder right now, I take very good care of them and clean everything twice daily so not sure if that would make a difference. And just not sure on how much room they need to roam if being inside would be to confined for them. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!
