65 degrees at 6 weeks old?

There will be a low of 65 degrees tonight, and I put them out in their new coop. There are 7 of them, so even if they are a bit cold, then can huddle, right?

I live where it's still getting down to 35 at night, I keep chicks in a home-made brooder, 2'x3' and have an 85 watt red bulb for heat. At 4 weeks I put them in a little coop with a run, same light is on inside until about 51/2 weeks and then I let nature take it's course, and I've never lost any. Maybe this helps???? Taker Easy!!

Yes, they should do fine at 65 degrees for the night...

Now, if you haven't been turning the light off at night time in their brooder, they may freak out a little over the darkness...
