Product Description
Special UVA and UVB fluorescent lamp for use with all captive birds. UVB allows birds to synthesize Vitamin D3 in their skin. UVA helps to curb feather picking and other destructive behaviors. Without UVA birds are color blind. True full spectrum. 26 Watts. Provides UVB and UVA in levels that are comparable to what would be received in the shade outdoors. This is a safe and effective level of exposure and can provide birds with a normal photoperiod. This lamp should be used for 8 to 10 hours per day to provide visible light. Position lamp 12 to 18 in. from where the bird might normally perch.

Great product February 26, 2010
Katrina Halverson (Wisconsin USA)
I received this in a very timely and fast manner. I have used the Zoo Med bulb for years. I will note that this particular bulb seems to be stronger and more luminous than the others in the past. This is a good thing. I usually purchase at the store where the bulbs probably sit for a couple years. I will continue to purchase these from the seller. I replace them every six or so months. Thank you!

I have used this light for my 3 African Greys in a year. I see their plumage is vibrant, red deep tail feathers. They are happier and healthier under this Avian light. So I bought 2 more for them.
 Rather fragile December 26, 2009

The product arrived as expected, quickly and in a box. I screwed it in and it appeared to work, but when I attempted to screw it back out I inadvertently applied a bit of pressure to the base of the tubes because I could not easily unscrew the base, and one of the tubes cracked. Entirely my fault, but the tiny bit of pressure that was applied would not have damaged similar fluorescents that I have used (i.e. bug lights), so I have subsequently gone to a sturdier, if not quite as "full spectrum" product.
Easy to install and the birds love it December 18, 2009

Ever since I got this lamp for the birds, they love it! At first it was as if they saw themselves for the first time. Since then they enjoy the light, they are happy when the lights are turned on and love to see themselves.
