My chicks are now 2 and a half weeks old. I have a brooder warmer plate in there with them. Do I need a light on all night? I have on I leave on 24/7, but just not as bright at night. How long do I wait before I switch to no light at night? They are currently in my living room, which has a small night light plugged in the wall across the room from them and I am thinking that may be enough light for them at night. The room doesn’t have much natural light, so I do have a light on for the brooder during the day and just dim it at night. So, when should I stop using the brooder ligh at night? Thanks!
