Question about geting chicks

I used a rabbit cage as a brooder when I hatched my first two sets of chicks this last spring. The first set was just two, that's just what hatched, and they did fine in the rabbit cage until 5-6 weeks when they were feathered enough to go outside. My next set, nine chicks, used it, too, but being so many, they outgrew it sooner (2-3 weeks) and I moved them to an old baby playpen.
 
I'd like to hear your plan for after these chicks get to be a month old. Do you plan on keeping them in this cage? How about when these chicks get to be ten weeks old? They will be close to the size of adult chickens. Do you plan on keeping them in this rabbit cage?
