Thinking of getting a ceramic heat emitter bulb. What wattage would be good

What is the size ceramic heat emitter bulb I need to use on young chicks ?
Thank you

I'm using a 75 watt ceramic heat bulb that's positioned about a foot over the bedding. Seems just right for my chicks that are indoors, ambient temp around 65 degrees.
