Heya!
I have four chickies that are 4 weeks old. They live in a brooder in our garage without a heat lamp. The brooder is getting a little tight, so I would like to move them out. However, I wanted to get some professional advice from the folks here! Is it too early or would the make it ok? I have attached a picture of the weather.
TIA!

What I did it moved there heat plate out with them at night, the day Temps look good but I am a little worried about the night Temps. How many chicks are there? Enough to keep each other warm?
 
So your lows are in the 60's and 70's Fahrenheit. At 4 weeks I'd have them out if the lows were in the 50's and that is being very cautious. Do not add any heat. They don't need it and you don't want to put any extra heat in there as high as the daytime temps are.
