Heat for older chicks?

[DSill]

My chicks are almost 7 weeks old. They seem to have most of their feathers, except for a few bits of down here and there. I turned off the heat lamp a week ago when the weather was warmer, but now it will be in the low 50's the next few nights. They were all fluffed up this morning when it was 57 degrees. Should I turn the heat lamp back on at night? It should be in the low 70's during the days.

They should be fine. They will fluff up and sit close if they are cold.

They absolutely do not need it at 7 weeks old.
