How Long to Try and Revive Baby Rabbits? - Homesteading Forum
I brought them inside with her fur and some hay and held each baby in warm water for a few minutes, dried them, and put them in a basket under an incandescent light bulb.

water well heat in cold weather - Homesteading Forum
But, instead of an incandescent bulb you may want to consider a 220-volt LED bulb. LED bulbs give off heat and are generally rated to have a 25,000 hour lifetime.

Keeps the domestic critters out of it as well!

The new mantle should put out light equivalent to a 40-watt incandescent light bulb. So, at night, you might want to make a comparison between your lamp and a light bulb. The old Aladdin mantles, which contain radioactive Thorium, would put out light equivalent to a 60-watt light bulb.

250 watt heat lamp warning - Homesteading Forum
Never have I seen a brooder that needs a 250 watt heat bulb, not even a 150/175 heat bulb. I wonder why some will have 20 chicks in a brooder with a 250 watt heat bulb 3 ft above the brooder----such a waste and very dangerous.
