Description: ZOO MED AVIAN SUN DELUXE FLOOR LAMP - AFL-10 The Zoo Med AvianSun Deluxe Floor Lamp (AFL-10) is a new lamp fixture designed for use with Zoo Med's AvianSun 5.0 UVB Compact Fluorescent Lamp (AS-C5), which is sold separately. The lamp provides birds with true full spectrum light, including both UVB and UVA, simulating the natural environment that birds would experience in the wild. Here are the key features and benefits of the AvianSun Deluxe Floor Lamp: Adjustable Gooseneck: The lamp comes with a new adjustable gooseneck, which allows bird keepers to position the lamp in a way that suits their birds' needs best. Full Spectrum Light: The AvianSun Deluxe Floor Lamp emits true full spectrum light, including UVB and UVA. This light is essential for the physical and psychological health of birds. UVB Benefits: UVB enables birds to synthesize vitamin D3 in their skin, which is crucial for proper calcium metabolism, normal growth, maintenance of strong bones, and egg production. UVB is known to be beneficial for many reptiles, and it is now recognized that birds also benefit from exposure to UVB. UVA Visibility: Birds can see UVA, which is a part of their natural visual spectrum. UVA helps birds recognize mates, locate food, and identify different species. Without UVA, birds may be essentially colorblind, and denying them access to UVA light can have negative impacts on their psychological wellbeing. Safe Levels of UVB and UVA: The AvianSun 5.0 UVB Compact Fluorescent Lamp (sold separately) provides birds with safe levels of UVB and UVA that are comparable to what they would receive in the shade outdoors. This ensures that the birds receive a normal photoperiod without being exposed to excessive UVB. Photoperiod Recommendation: The lamp should be used for 8 to 10 hours per day to provide visible light, UVB, and UVA. This lamp is considered a true full spectrum lamp, unlike other "full spectrum" lamps that may provide only UVA and visible light without UVB. It's important to note that the AvianSun Deluxe Floor Lamp is designed to work specifically with the AvianSun 5.0 UVB Compact Fluorescent Lamp, which should be purchased separately. This lamp combination is aimed at providing the necessary lighting elements to support the overall health and wellbeing of pet birds. Proper lighting is crucial for birds' physical health, including bone development, and their psychological health, as it allows them to engage in natural behaviors and perceive their environment effectively. Lamp is 71-72 inch high when fully extended. We will pick best available way to ship Thank you, CountryFishGirl
