Vacation in the summer for two weeks? Who will watch my chickens?

So glad to have found this Post. I have 3 Buffs about 10 days old ( I have had them since the 5/1-the day they arrived at the store). We go on vacation 6/20-30. I can have one (and more) people here every day checking on them in the coop/run. My question is: If someone lets them out in the AM, can they be out all day (until about 6:00PM) or will they still be too young (at about 7.5 weeks)??
Thanks!
 
I agree with the other posts. The longest time I have been away was 6 weeks. I had friends take turns checking on my birds. I have two feeders and waterers. One each in the coop and also in the run. You are lucky if you chicks are 5/6 weeks old you won't have to worry about collecting the eggs because they probably won't be laying yet when you take your vacation. Here are pictures of my waterers and feeders in the coop also the two hanging in the run.
