Moved our 2 week chicks out from our dining room to our coop building. They have been using a brooder plate for warmth in the dining room. Our outside temperatures are still hovering in the 50's at night and overcast morning's like this. I put in a heat lamp to warm up the ambient air and reinstalled the brooder plate thinking they would like that comfort and familiarity. Is this overkill? My concern is that the brooder plate is good for resting and sleeping but the rest of the coop will be too cold to move around and eat and play.
