Oops!  I confused your thread with another poster's whose chicks are about 8 weeks old.  Some would probably say wait until they are at least 8 weeks.  They can probably still go outside during the day though.

That's what I'm going to do! I have moved them into the garage with no heat and we are going to be spending days out in the coop and bringing them back into the garage at night. This gives me a little more time to get the run and coop rest of the way set up. We are also going to be out of town in two weekends and I don't want to leave them in the coop so i have a friend that is going to keep them in her garage for me! After that they will be 8 weeks, fully feathered and I think ready to go to the coop full time. I'm pretty sure after getting everyone's very conflicting advice I'm not going to put heat into the coop and only do the cookie tin heather for their water.
 
It's crazy how much they change every day!

First bird is possibly a pullet. Can you post a profile pic of that bird, standing naturally?

Everyone else looks male.
