Hi, we're in NJ-in the middle of a heat wave. I've got 2 big brooder boxes in my garage with chicks of all ages from less than 1 week to about a month (5 weeks old.) For the months old ones especially, is it ok to move them out to the new pen now? It has lots of shade, a tree for coolness, and air flow, unlike the hot garage they are in now all cramped up in their brooder box. Will they need a light on at night-time, even if its over 75 or 80 at night? For the younger ones, esp the 1-2 weekers, I'll leave them in the box for now.
