Can my chicks go outside!?! Please help!

Once they are fully feathered they stay out there for good in my coop . Mine were little younger then 5 weeks when the went out permanently

Thank you to everyone for the info. I am definitely going to put them outside during the days for a week or so, and then I'm going to let them start staying outside permanently. This way there's a good transition period.

I think they will be ok! Mine are 5 weeks and spend the day outside and are going out permanently next week!

I have a question for you. Tomorrow our temps will be in the low 50's. They have been outside all day for the past three days, but it's been in the 60's the whole time. Is it safe for them to go out tomorrow? Thanks

My first night my chicks stayed out all day was low 50s, as long has they have each other they should be fine.

I think they should be ok. If they get cold they will snuggle together. If you are really worried though, you could put them back in their brooder just for the night and then put them back out in the morning. I think they will do great though! They are a lot more resistant than we give them credit for
