    Featherless bum?

    When can featherless baby chicks go outside

    I have 9, seven-week old chicks who don't have all their feathers due to their previous living situation. They are quickly growing them back though but I'm wondering when can they go outside? Do I need to wait until all their feathers grow back? They are growing tired of their smaller living...
