I'm new here and I new chicken owner. Does anyone know when is it too hott out side for my 4 week old chicks. We average in the mid 90s right now. I have them in the house in there booder box , they r just getting to big for it and need to be moved to the coop.

I would think the heat would be too much for 4 week old chicks, usually when they outgrow a brooder they go to a larger brooder - unless you have a well shaded area for them.
Maybe you could let them outside early in the morning before it gets that hot.

If it's that warm outside I'd let them out during the day and let them sleep inside for another week before letting them stay outside full time.
