Full Spectrum Pet Light Bulb VITA-Light Great for Birds & Reptiles. UVA & UVB

I have four parakeets and have been using this type of lamp bulb for several years now. I had been using another brand but the price went up enough to be willing to try another brand. I took the plunge and selected this model for having some of the same uva/uvb ratings along with the cost being much better. It shipped fast and works well in a utility clamp style light fixture. The base fits standard size sockets and is a bit brighter than the old one but that's normal as this type of bulb will loose it's effectivness after a year normally and start to dim but so gradual you don't notice until you change it out with a new one. My bird's like the light and it's healthy for them as well being indoors all the time they really need the extra light that this bulb will supply, I keep mine on from 8am till 8pm plugged in to a timer so it's convenient and routine for my feathered friends.

This bulb made a significant difference in my parakeets health and mood. I couldn't figure out why they were always so cranky and their feathers weren't growing well.Then I read that they needed a lot of light.So, this is what I did...I hung the light on top of the cage, connected it to an Alexa enabled plug. Then I set the Alexa enabled plug to automatically turn on and off according to the sunrise and sunset but on a 15 min dim, so it gradually darkens or lightens. Doing this turned my birds completely around. They started molting soon thereafter, and grew in a ton of feathers, they're also much more friendlier.

Birds LOVE this. They are so happy and active. Brings out their colors! Very happy with this bulb!

Just the right light for my finches.They love it.

I received the bulb on Tuesday and it lasted until Saturday. Not too happy

Using it for a Amazon parrot and fairly large cage. 24 x 28 x 48 high . It would probably be best for a small cage.

My bird loves it!
