Hi, I built my meat chicken room in the barn today and will order the chicks in the morning. I have followed these threads all winter and have decided to follow the 12 on 12 off rule. Which part of the day is on and which is off.? Do you take the food at night? Also, will I need the heat lamps the whole time or will they only need it for the first 3 weeks or so? I live in central Idaho and it will still get cool at night until June. I should have the birds May 8th. Thanks in advance-
