My chicks are 3 almost 4 weeks old and my parent want them out of the house as soon as possible. I have 4 chicks...a Black sex link, Brown sex link, Australorp and a Silkie.
I 4 extra male chicks that the hatchery sent us and those will be living with the other chick until I can find new homes for them. It's been about 50 degrees outside at night and about 60-70 degrees during the day. Can they live outside without a heat lamp?
 
Here are some pics of them.


Can they really live outside without a heat lamp?





These are my three week old chicks that I started putting outside
in late January of this year as it got down to 40F at night so I put
a blanket over the cake to keep out the cold and wind and these
little guys are running around the yard today but I am getting ready
to start sending the roo's to freezer camp .......
