2 month olds

[CoFarmer]

My chickens are 2 months old. We have them in a covered 5x10 dog kennel on the back covered porch, covered with tarps that we lower at night and when it rains. They all roost inside an XL dog crate inside the kennel at night. But we’re having cooler summer weather (55 degrees at night). Should I turn on the heat lamp at night? It is dry inside but cooler than normal summer nights.

Nope. They are perfectly fine at 8 weeks old with no heat.
