Lighting

Like Tj said, It's natural for them. Also while I don't have scientific proof of this, I do believe that having a light cycle is good for their mental well-being.

I use the eco-friendly compact fluorescent bulbs because they give good light with no heat.

Where can i get that? local petshop? petco?

[pixiefrogman]

They are just normal eco-friendly bulbs. You can get them at like Walmart or Publix.

Okay thank you! i jsut put them outside right now for some sun lighting for now

Sun light is great. As long as they have a way to escape from it when needed. What are the outdoor temps like? I would imagine it'd be getting colder everywhere right now.
