I've always read 95 during the first week and 5 degrees lower every week after. And once fully feathered they don't need the heat at all. BUT, like everything with chickens there is some wiggle room.
I adjust the heat lamp but I don't worry too much about the temp under it because the chicks regulate themself. I just make sure I have a big enough brooder where they can get away from or go to the heat when needed.
