Hi and from Ohio. So glad you joined. If that is their source of heat, than yes you must leave it on. Chicks should be kept at 90-95 degrees then drop down 5 degrees per week until fully feather.

Hello and

Yes, the light should be left on all night until the chicks grow their own feathers to keep warm.
Enjoy the site.

Yes, leave it on. That is the only way they can stay warm.
