New Chicks

[merrymutts]

Brought home 9 Red Sex Link pullets today from Tractor Supply.

They look to be about 2-3 weeks old. Should they need supplemental heat ?

Highs here in the 90's … Lows in the mid-70's

I wouldn't provide heat when it's that warm and never did when I had my chicks over the summer. If they are huddled together then you will know they need warmth. If they are spread apart and now huddled they are okay as is. The only time I provide heat is during cold or if I have then inside and the air conditioning is on.
