Leave them if they have a proper shelter out of the wind with warm dry bedding.

it has walls and a roof, and hay in it. but if it were to get down to the negatives (-20 or more) not now but later in the winter would they survive it?

Definitely just provided you have nice straw bedding to huddle into and all the other proper things in place. Tough birds.

is about an inch of straw/hay good enough?

Straw is insulated so use that and as long as they are off the frozen ground use your discretion about how much straw to provide.

Straw won't rot in the winter so only use that in winter. Pine shavings I use in the summer months only in the house.
