Hey friends!

I have 12 chicks that are roughly 4 weeks old. Some have all their feathers (Brahma, Guineas) and the rest are close. Should it be ok to go ahead and put them outside? I have 10 other hens that are ahead in age by 2 weeks that are all outside. My only concern is I know Polish are temp sensitive. None of the birds have been staying under the heat lamp (which has been raised pretty high from the brooder to acclimate)
I’m attaching pictures of them all and our weather forecast for the 10 days.

Thanks so much!

Beautiful birds! I love the black and white! They'll be good to go outside! Even if you had weather that was in the lower 60's. I had mine outside without a heat lamp at 2 weeks and the nights were getting into the 40's. Especially if they've been off the heat lamp.

I’m just concerned about the Polish 😂😅
