UVA UVB Light Bulb for Birds 2.4 UVB 20W Compact Flourescent Lamp for All Kinds Captive Birds

My birds seem to love the light

My starlings were not recovering from their molt, and I was late in changing out their bulbs. The birds just moped around the cage. Truthfully, I was leery of using Amazon for lightbulbs, but my local store ran out and I was desperate. I took a chance and bought this. Immediately, my birds perked up. They actually faced the light bulb (usually, they face the opposite direction) and very soon, their molt grew back, with added shine. In all the years I bought lightbulbs, I never witness them react so quickly. I will definitely buy this again.

The light is working. All you have to do is screw it into fixture and plug it in and it fits just like any other kind of light bulb. Maybe a little pricey but was a better price than I could fine locally. Time will tell about lifespan.

This u v b light is producing the same u.V rays as an arcadia, brand and half the price remember to hang 6to8 inches away from your bird's head . If you go any further, it will not benefit the wavelengths that it needs. And remember to replace every six months, even though it works.It loses strength.

When you have an indoor pet bird, it absolutely needs a "sun lamp" to make vitamin D for the health of the bird and to allow its feathers to reach their full beauty. Bird supplements help but the light is still necessary. This one has been making a buzzing noise since we got it a week or so ago. My wifie thinks that it will quiet down after the break-in period, during which it should be about 50% farther away from the bird. Break-in takes about a week or two, as I recall. This one is affordable so I hope it goes silent soon. It's a good and popular brand/supplier, so I trust that it will do the job. I've seen other brands at up to $60, so this one will do. By the way, these are only good for around 6 months of average use so remember to replace them twice a year. If the price remains good, I'll get another one of these next time. We had to buy this one early because the lamp fell, and the light broke when it hit the floor. Do your bird a big favor and keep it under a UV lamp if you love it and want it to stay healthy.

good uvb light bulb for birds as well as reptiles. i have 2 in my small bathroom where my bird plays so then she gets lots of uv light.

Will buy again great buy at a great price

Defective bulb, just flickers faintly. I contacted the manufacturer directly, and they have not responded. This is the second bulb in a row that I've ordered from them that has been defective. The other worked for 3 months. I've used their bulbs for years without problems, but after this experience, I ordered a different brand. Maybe they will respond to my review here.
