How warm does it need to be for three weeks old chicks they are feathering out nicely? I want to move them from their box into a little pen but I am not sure how close to put their lights
Where do you live? I live in central Florida and have 3 week old chicks (hatched 02/01). They are almost fully feathered out except for their necks and heads. I have them in a pen with chicken wire sides and no heat lamp in my enclosed back porch (it is in the low 80s here during the day). I weaned them off the lamp over the last week.
