Loose stool?

Mine are still inside at 3 weeks. I'm afraid to let mine out in the yard!
One, how will I catch them (we do have a fenced yard) and two is it safe for all 10 chicks to be outside at the same time? Or should I just bring 2 out at a time?

If your outside to supervise, then just make a circle out of chicken wire to keep them contained. Mine have been out in the coop since they were 3 weeks old with a black plastic cement trough with wood chips in it directly under the heat lamp. They can get in and out easily so they have the whole coop to roam, but I think the black plastic helps hold in most of the heat so that tends to be where they sleep. Our days and nights have been pretty chilly the last couple of days high 40's-low 50's in the day and low 40's at night. They are doing well of course the first couple of nights I was nervous as could be.
 
My 9 month old hen has very loose clear diarrheal . Her comb is very pale in color and is smaller than her sisters. She is eating and drinking but seems to move slower than her sis.
