Moving chicks outside in HUMID HEAT

[ozarkchickens]

Hi all, I've always moved my littles outside at 5-6 weeks, when mostly feathered, but I bought late this year and 5-6 weeks will be July/August (vs usual May). The temps here average 90 JulyAug, but the humidity is extreme - heat index in high 90s. Ok to move them out, or wait til September? Or acclimate them slowly with daily outings?

I'd be tempted to acclimate slowly and monitor closely - they are probably ready to start transitioning now.

Daily outings, did nearly the same last year but worse didn't get chicks until early July did daily outings and moved them permanently at the end of August.
You have to let them wilt slowly.
