We are expecting temp to not go out of the 30's with lows in the teens. They are in a small rabbit hutch shelter. I was thinking a 75 watt ceramic heat bulb or a 75 watt infrared spot bulb. Or just let mom do her thing

I agree. I've seen Momma Hens bring the chicks out to run around in the snow. She will take them in and warm them up when they need it as long as good shelter is provided. Chickens were doing it long before electricity and heat lamps were ever thought of. They didn't need them then and they don't need them now.If they can totally get out of the elements (four walls and a roof) I just let the mom do her thing...
