At this time of year should I keep my 3 week old chicks in the house off heat or in the barn?

if I put them in the barn will they need to go back on heat and if so for how long? I can keep them in the house for another week or so but they don't half stink and they end up in the dolls pram every day!

Yeah, they'll need to stay on heat in the barn for another 4 or 5 weeks at this time of year.
Maybe section off a small corner for them so they don't wander off and get too cold Smile
