too soon?

[ButtersMama]

I have 5 week old easter eggers. I'd like to know if it is too soon to let them out on the grass in a little gated pen. It is going to be full sun - upper 40's low to mid 50's today. They've been in my house and I've not been using the heat lamp lately.
Is it ok to take them outside?

If they are fully feathered, then yes it should be fine. When I raised EEs they were well feathered out at that age and handled those temps and conditions well. Just keep and eye on them and if they start huddling up bad put them back indoors. Good luck.

Thank you Farm Mom I'm in MI too!

Yes they are fully feathered. So I think it will be ok. I will watch them.
