I have the brooder plates so they go under to keep warm. The room itself is 69 at night and 80 in the day. They have tons of room as they are In a tend in the spare room. So no drafts. I planned on keeping them in for at least 4 weeksI keep the floor of my brooders 95 the first week and lower it 5 degrees a week.I also keep them in roomy brooders so they can get away from the heat.I only use ceramic heaters and light bulbs.Never had any issue with hatchery chicks living but I keep mine inside for a minimum of 1-2 weeks
