The Vision daytime bulb for basking makes an excellent heat source for smaller cages, such as the Vision Bird Cage. Although you may find your home temperature comfortable, for many tropical birds it is quite cold! This can have an effect on your bird's health as well as their sleep patterns. Different species of birds adapt to different climates; therefore, the temperature of their cage must be adjusted accordingly.
The Daytime Basking Bulb is ideal for creating a natural daylight cycle and temperature gradients. It includes a built-in reflector that can be aimed at a specific area of the cage to create a place to bask.
The daytime basking bulb can also be used for weak or sick birds. When a bird is sick, its temperature drops. It can therefore be cold and inflate its feathers accordingly. If you notice that your bird is sick and cold, you can offer therapeutic heat. If you think your bird is sick, always consult an avian veterinarian.
