There's tons of info around that Poults can go outside permanently around 8-10 weeks. I was wondering how old they could be for me to place them outside on warm sunny days, while in an enclosed cage. I've placed chicks outside during days like the ones I mention, as soon I knew they wouldn't squeeze through the bars on the dog kennel I used with them, and they did good. They munched on the grass all day, munched on a few bugs. Anyways. I was wondering if this is possible for turkeys poults. I bought my two from a farm and feed in town on April 16, I assume they are maybe 2-3 weeks old.

The poults can handle whatever temperature that you have acclimated them to. If you are keeping their heated area at 65°F and the day temperature is above that they can be out in those conditions. They must have the ability to freely go in and out of shade as they feel the need.
