I think the red bulbs get hotter, but are easier on their eyes. If you use a red bulb, ajust it to 95 degrees underneath it. As for bedding, for the first 3 weeks, I cover the bottom of a shallow box with chick starter. They lay,sleep, & eat in the box. I cut slots out for easy access in & out. After 3 weeks, they get pine shavings.
