Ready for the great outdoors?

[Veiji]

We are getting some chick about 5 to 6 weeks old and were wondering if they were ready to be put outside in their own coop?

The weather is rainy and windy, but temp is around low 30s at night.

Is it too cold for them?

As long as the chicks are acclimatized to the colder tempts, from gradual exposure, they are ready for coop living.

UPDATE: We got the chicks, they spent yesterday outdoors in the run by themselves. The older chickens were let out to free roam. They did pretty well and huddled together once it got a bit chilly. I put them back into a cage under the heat lamp. Today it's pretty chilly AND raining. I didn't let them out at all. Hoping soon i can let them out everyday, super rainy here in Michigan during the spring.
