    Default What color night light?

    Another question from a new frog person:

    I have a lot of nocturnal geckos who have no night light and seem to do fine with the fact that I spend most of the evening in the gecko room with the room lights on. I'm getting the impression that the frogs are less content to have ambient light at night but since I want to see them, I guess I need night light. Red or blue? Or does it matter?

    My greys only wake up with a blue nightlight. They never woke up with the red. My red eyes either didn't wake up or were really inactive with either of them. So I do not use any sort of night light for the reds. With the reds, I just do an occasional peek-in during the night.

    I've been peeking with a LED flashlight. I don't intend to leave any kind of night light on all night. The question is, if I want to peek, does it matter if I use a white, red or blue LED or is it no big deal since it's only for a few minutes.
