The cold shouldn't be a problem if they have bedding to nest in with a few tissues or something to shred. Because more than one female is abandoning though, I would think it would be something...

They can be weaned from three weeks. You just need to make sure they can reach the food and water. They will start nibbling at solids once their eyes open. I would avoid handling in the first 5 days...

19-25 degrees C is what is required for research facilities, not to hot not to cold. I think as long as they have bedding to huddle in when it's cold, they are fine.

I agree with the BARF diet, but I am too lazy myself (I tried a few times), so my dogs get supercoat, table scraps and a meaty bone 1-2 times a week.
