Yes. I have used regular light bulbs. With those temps you should have no problem. Just check with a thermometer to adjust the height from the brooder floor.

Yes. I use a twenty watt with small numbers of chicks. Smaller wattage bulbs can be used in heat lamps. With the lower watt bulbs the lamp need to be lower.

Or try a heat plate! I switched from a heat lamp to that on my chicks and they seem a little more settled in the box than having a glaring light over them.
