    How soon do chicks not need heat?

    We put our girls out last week, (new ones in the brooder this week). It got below freezing a couple of nights, we had no troubles. They huddled together in the tractor's Hen House and did fine. I put them on at 7 weeks, they were fully feathered. 12 birds in a 38x32x24 box for the night.
