If you have a coop outside already just find a way to attach the heat lamp. I let my chicks and duckling outside when they were about 5-6 weeks, but I had the heat lamp inside their coop; just if they get to cold they can go by the lamp and huddle together. Since it is so cold where you live though, you may want to wait.
