momma hen and chicks outside

I just had one of my hens hatch 3 baby chicks. I have them enclosed in the house separate from my other two hens - one of which is very mean! The way I separated the henhouse they have their own door to an enclosed run outside. My question is when can I let them outside to play around? I know when I first got my chicks (all chicks via mail order) I waited about a month before letting them out. But with a Momma hen, can they go out earlier? They are about a week old right now and it seems Mom would like some fresh air!
