Moving chicks out to the coop

[Danguzewich]

Hey we live in north florida and have some 3 week old chicks and are ready to move them out to the coop. Is it too soon? At most it gets to 70 at night. Was wondering because this is the first time Ive had chicks and no hens as a kid growing up in key west we had chickens and then hens would take care of the chicks so we never really worried about it, or at least I never was told to worry about them. Just want to keep them healthy and safe so I appreciate any input.

Since it's so warm, I'm sure it's fine. I don't use a heat lamp for them at that age, and my house gets down to 60.

Thanks that was what I was thinking but I'd rather play safe and ask.
