Thank you for this note & the link! I was wondering about a light for them! I’ll put one in there. I love the picture they’re so cute lol! ‘Hiding’.You have been given some good advice. When I first put my chicks out into the chick/grow-out coop I do put a heat lamp initially for them. When they are a couple of months old I take it out. I do have a light in the coop that I leave on. I leave them in the coop for a couple of weeks so they get used to the coop as their safe place then I open the pop door to their pen. Good luck and have fun...
