They should be fine if they're fully feathered. As long as your coop isn't drafty, they should be OK.

Unless it is very cold where you are, I say go for it. Mine went outside without a heat lamp at 4.5 weeks and they aren't even in an enclosed building. The walls are just wire. I check on them frequently and they have shown no signs of distress or illness. They have been in temperatures ranging from the 50s to the 90s without issue.
 
it not cold i live in england and we been getting very warm weather
