Wild ducks migrate so what do our pet ducks do? I have a garage so do I put there hut in garage to keep em bit warmer , but shorly can't keep them in there 24/7 for the winter months are they allowed out in day time hail rain and snow? Or not?

What time year would you say they need to be put away warmer in year???

mine stayed out all year last year. made sure they had plenty of dry straw every day in their hut they have never tried to fly but if your worried clip their wing

yep, let them out in all weathers, they will be fine, just keep them sheltered from wind and draughts.

your ducks will not fly, so no need to clip their wings (I assume they are the ducks you thought were calls but are in fact Cherry valleys?)

Yes they are the call ducks of what i though but cherrys yes haha, why can't they fly??

No heavy or medium breed of domestic duck has flight capability. Their wing span isn't large enough to carry their weight. x
