When can chickens go outside?

[thanson123]

When can chicks be inside of their coop and run full time? And do they still need their heat lamp when they do? Thank you!

They can live outside whenever they are fully feathered, which, depending on the breed, can take from 4 weeks to 6 weeks.

So will they still need their heat lamp?
