They go nut's meaning they start crying? If that's the case then they are both just crying for you and yes they will get over it. As far as the lightbulb goes I use a 120 volt/250 watt red heat bulb and i point at an angle so that they can go in and out of the light as needed. Any kind of brooder light bulb will work though as long as they can leave the direct heat zone. Remember, ducklings can take more cold than chicks can so don't worry to much!!

Not a problem. Feel free to ask as many questions as needed!!
