i moved my 3 ducks outside at 2 weeks for the same reason. we didnt use a heat lamp but they are housed with 2.5 mo old chicks to help stay warm. the temp has dropped into the low 40's and the birds have been fine outside for 2 weeks now. as long as you have the heat lamp they should be fine.

When the ducks are about 8 weeks old, they can be kept outside if they have access to a warm shed.Source(s): Poultry farm manager.ake sure your duck has feathers when you let him out. Teach them a little how to survive in the real world and when you let them out put them in a safe place. Make sure you don't get to close with them because it might be hard to let them go. So my advice wait until it has feathers and can walk propper than let it out.
