UV Light for Birds
The Arcadia Parrot Pro UV light offers all the UVA and UVB your bird needs to thrive indoors. Its 24 - watt compact lamp emits UVB over a focusable area, enabling your bird to produce and utilize Vitamin D3, crucial for proper calcium metabolism. This lamp is vital for normal growth, strong bones, and egg - laying.
The special UV coating on the Parrot Pro Lamp lasts about 12 months with an average 8 - 10 hours of daily use. It's a good idea to give your bird a 1 - 2 hour break in the afternoon. You can subscribe to Arcadia's reminder service to know when to replace the lamp.
Your pet bird's eyes are sensitive, so the Parrot Pro UV Lamp doesn't flicker when you turn it on. The lamp and its reflective holder are waterproof, allowing you to keep the light on while showering or misting your bird. The lamp holder can be easily attached to ceilings or walls, making it perfect for aviaries or bird rooms.
Birds and parrots have specialized retinas to see UVA, which helps them recognize mates, find food, and distinguish species. Without UVA, birds can't see the full color spectrum and may become color - blind. UVA is essential for their psychological well - being and can prevent feather - picking and other bad behaviors. Arcadia's motto is 'Light for Life', so let your bird enjoy a colorful world.
It comes with a USA converter/transformer for use in the US and Canada on 110v - 120v.

When you turn on the lamp, it won't flicker, which is great for your bird's sensitive eyes. Keep the lamp on for about 8 - 10 hours a day, and give your bird a 1 - 2 hour break in the afternoon for rest.

To maintain the lamp, make sure to keep it clean and check the UV coating regularly. If you notice any signs of wear or if the light doesn't seem as bright, it might be time to replace the lamp.
