Stupid question I know. But this is my first batch of buttons, and they were laid about 3 days ago, and I know it is waaay to early now, I am just wanting to know when does their brooder light get taken away?
 
For the 1st week,the heat should be at 95 degrees and drop 5 degrees each week for at least 4 weeks,maybe 3 weeks with buttons as they are full grown in 6 weeks and laying eggs.
In N.H.,Tony.

In air conditioned environment I keep the light on until 4 weeks at least with the buttons, or at least until they get most of their adult feathering.

they should lay around 9-12 weeks
