Exo Terra Daytime Heat Lamp, 60w
Exo Terra Daytime Heat Lamp, 60w
This bulb does not produce UVB.
As poikilotherms, reptiles are extremely dependent on having access to a sun-like source of heat where they can warm their bodies as needed to regulate their metabolism. The purpose of a basking lamp is to simulate the heat produced by the sun and thus support reptiles' thermoregulatory needs. Both diurnal and nocturnal reptiles should have access to a heat lamp and basking temperatures appropriate to their species.
The Exo Terra Daytime Heat Lamp is an incandescent heat bulb that provides low-intensity, gentle, even heating for reptiles. If you need something hotter, we suggest the stronger and more efficient Arcadia Halogen or Zoo Med Repti Tuff Halogen.
For the best function, use this bulb with the Exo Terra Glow Light, Small.
