i have baught from a breeder i know well so i knew the sussex was point of lay as i got my first egg off her this morning the two 9 week old blubells are to young to be outside yet

They should be fine outside on a nice sunny day.  You will need to acclimatise them so they get used to not having a heat lamp.  My chicks were hatched 7th February this year and their Mum had them out in all weathers from a few days old.
