I would move them out.

Provide a huddle box (a cardboard box laying on it's side with only the top flap hanging down to form a 'cave') that is large enough to accomodate them easily and make sure there are no breezes that can enter it. Put a layer of thick, dry, fluffy bedding in the box and they will be fine. You'll need to change the box bedding daily as they will poop in it. Just dump it out into the coop and add a new layer of fresh bedding.
 
as long as its enclosed theyll be alright .. id give them no heat a day or two in the brooder first though .. if its drafty and they get chilled they can get sick though, so be sure its pretty cozy ..
