Moving young chicks outside

[KChick21]

I have 6 baby chicks and have been raising them indoors. They are just turning 4 weeks old and seem to have developed a lot of their tail and wing feathers. I have a beautiful chicken coop waiting for them in my backyard. When can I safely move them outside?

A few weeks ago I move my four 2-day short of 4 week old chicks outside and they are doing quite fine. The temps were below 32 at night, and in the mid to low 40's during the day. And as usually, it rained a lot. I put my Brinsea brooder in the coop with them, but they did not want or need it it seems.

Once they are feathered out and it is relatively warm 70 degrees I think they are big enough to move into the coop. Just keep them out of drafts. I live in Florida but I put mine out into the coop at 2 weeks.
