How much light a day?

[Ginjasnapz]

Hi all! I've been keeping my dragon's lights on 12 hrs a day and then off for 12 hrs. Is this good to follow. My husband said he read they only need 8 hrs of light in the fall and winter and 12 in the summer and spring. So, should I be following those guidelines? Thank for anyone who can help

Just my two cents but I run my lights on a 14/10 schedule even in the winter months in Australia there’s more daylight than 8 hours I believe I could be wrong lol. If anything I’d increase your daylight hours and in summer you could do 15/9.

This is how long the sun shines in Australia! Up to 14:40 hours of daylight a day.

Times of sunrise and sunset for the most important cities in Australia and the avg. length of daylight per month

Probably not the best website I’m not sure but from what I read here and some other places the shortest daylight hours are about 12 hours in most places but I’m by no means knowledgeable about dragons native habitat and hopefully some others will respond who have been there and experienced for themselves.
