Hello..
I need some advice..
I have read so many different opinions on lighting your hatchlings.. Our first baby piped the egg yesterday, and is out and about today.. The eggs are almost 6 months into incubation, so I was surprised to see a baby this early, but am prepared, so that is good..
My question is.. Do the hatchlings need a UVB light above their enclosures?
I have read that using a regular incandescent bulb, angled toward them for a basking area is sufficient.
I would assume they need the UVB as well as a slightly warmer area, but I could be wrong..
I would appreciate any feedback..
Thank you
