Do I need heat lamps?

[Belovedturkey]

I live in Oklahoma and it’s going to be -10 F this weekend and generally below freezing for a while so I was wondering if I need heat lamps. We moved here recently so they’re in a coop that was already here and it’s basically just a shed so I’m not confident it’s going to hold heat itself. I do have one Bantam, not sure if that changes anything but I figure since she’s smaller it’ll be colder for her. Anyways I’m not used to the climate and am not sure if I should use heat lamps or not. I also have a flat floor heater that’s also a brooder but it doesn’t heat up as well as a heatlamp.

Are these adult birds?
Where did you recently move from?, so we have an idea what these birds are used too.

BT,
Please post pic's of your coop. if it's just one Bantam you are worried about then bring it in. Do you have a laundry area or garage area out of the wind?
