Hey guys, need advice as this is my first time raising chickens 
I have 3 silkie chicks that are 3 1/2 weeks old and 2 barred rocks that are about 5 weeks old living in a brooder inside my house. The barred rocks are getting huge so I would like to put all of the chicks outside in their coop but I am worried about the silkies. They are MUCH smaller so I am concerned they still need their heat lamp. I live in Cumming GA, so the temperature is pretty nice right now. I would just be concerned about it getting down to the 50's at night. Does anyone have any feedback? How young is too young to put them outside in the Spring? Thanks in advance!
