I have read that when peachicks are in the brooder you start the first week 95° degrees and that each week deduct 5°. I have also read that you keep the heat until 4mo of age. I'm confused on what I should leave the hestsource.
I'm in Texas the brooder room is 90s right now but I still have the heat at night. I have a few that I have outside and in that cage I put the heat on at night. At what age can you remove the heat.
I am leaving for a night out of town and I hate leaving heat lamps on. The outside night temperature is mid 70s. Will that harm a 2.5mo peachicks?
The ones inside has a heater inside the brooder so I'm not worried about those.
