Yes, it's recommended that the UVB bulb be replaced every 6 months.
A great one to use is the Repti-SUN 10.0 (not to be confused by repti-glo).
I have chosen to use the Powersun 100watt for now, and have had no problems with it. I love it and my beardies do as well. :)
Good luck!

It depends on the bulb. Long flourescent tubes 6 months. Mercury vapor bulbs, yearly.

Thanks for the input

Just to clarify things I am asking what bulb you are using and how often you replace it/intend on replacing it

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
