so the light is not the need at all, but rather just heat?

I could rely on the ambient light from day and night for that and use the heater.

Yup. Providing they get enough light to see for eating etc.

Something else I keep forgetting to mention....back when I used incubators/brooders I would provide a roost (wood dowel) about 2-3" off of the bottom. Teaches them to roost and helps keep their butts off of the floor. Helps keep them from getting crap stuck to their behinds. Works well !

I have the roost in there and they love it.  It is actually a branch with multiple perches.
