Hey you guys I just found out that the uvb light that I have for my 2 month old baby Beardie Rain is NO good for him. I got it from the zoomed bearded dragon starter kit 20”. And it’s a 5.0 uvb cfl..I took him outside today for some authentic UVB from the sun he really enjoyed it! But I won’t be able to get him the correct lighting for 2 more weeks if I continue to let him get some sun will he be okay without a uvb light Until next Monday? Or should I continue to use the one I have until I can get him the proper one he needs?

Yeah unfortunately that one that came with the kit isn't strong enough to be helpful. Natural sunlight can't be beaten though! If he likes being outside and the weather is nice, definitely bring him out to soak up some sun when you can. In the long run I suggest investing in a good 22'' T5 bulb which will provide excellent UVB levels for a year or more.
