How long can he last?

[TinySmaugOfficial]

I have really bad lights that my parents bought with the kit. These are them:
i know theyre bad and I’m getting new ones in soon, but my question is how long can I keep these on him without making him sick? And if he does get sick, will just replacing the bulb work? I’m really worried.

When are the lights coming? If you are in a warm climate --- 65+ degrees outside you can take him out in a plastic tote NO glass place him in direct sunlight for 15 minutes supervise him --- you can do this several times per day till your UVB comes --

Temp outside?

Temp outside?

right now it’s 57, and it tends to stay in the 50-60 degree area in late winter. Although it can get REALLY hot in summer, up in the high 80’s/low to mid 90’s. that won’t be for a while, though.
