Fully feathered?

Hi!

I'm a new owner of a great group of chicks (silkies, cochins, polishes, etc.). I just got them 1 week ago, the seller said they are 50 days (not sure if that is true). In anycase, since I've brought them home this past week, I've been taking my chicks outside during the day and bringing them into the garage at night. However, I'm wondering if they are feathered enough to stay overnight in the coop. I'm in Dubai, so day temperature is about 95 degrees Fahrenheit and at night it gets as low as 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

I'm not an expert, so your guidance is much appreciated. Are they feathered? If there is any that I am most concerned about, it would be the grey dwarfed cochin (pictured alone). Please let me know if you think they are fully feathered and can be left outside day/night in the coop or if i should continue bringing them in each night for a little longer. Thank you in advance.

Since you live in Dubai, they are ready to go outside IMO. The only chick you need to bring in at night is the cochin/Pekin bantam
