night lighting and heating

[kaska798]

I'm new to this. I've read different things about lighting at night. Basically from what I understand the infared lights are not good. I ordered this moonlight night light. It says it gives off some heat, would this be enough heat at night or would I need a che light too? And, what is the best temp at night and during the day for a 6 month old BD?

Unless your house temps are dropping below 65 there is no need for a heat source at night. In their natural desert habitat they are use to temps being cooler at night. If your temps are falling below this I'd recommend a cemetric heater instead of a heat light. During the day for a 6month old I'd aim to have a basking spot of 100-105 and a cool area of around 80-85.
