I have five chickens and it says it’s going to be in the lowes 28 tonight there in a shed lots of bedding should they need heat?
 
At 3 months old they are fully feathered. That temperature is very pleasant to a chicken. Heck, my week old chicks did fine with those kind of temperatures. When they got cold they'd run under mom and warm up for a minute or two. Then they'd be running around again being chicks.
 
As long as they are dry, out of the wind, and have good ventilation they will be fine.
Pics of your coop, inside and out, would help us help you optimize your coop for winter.

Oh, and....
Where in this world are you located?
Climate, and time of year, is almost always a factor.
Please add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, (laptop version shown), then it's always there!
