So scorch was due for a bulb change again, and stupidly I decided to put her old 100W Powersun back in (this bulb gave her eye problems when she was little, I thought it might be okay if I kept it at a larger distance). WELL with the bulb set out at over a foot above her bask, she developed PKC AGAIN!
I'm planning on ordering her a new T-Rex when I get paid tonight.
Until then I heard it is best to keep her under a regular household bulb without UV so she can recover... but I'm pretty sure she is getting ready to lay her third clutch this season.
Would it be harmful if I deprive her of UV rays while she is developing eggs?
(sorry if this is under the wrong section. My vet is out of office for a few days and last time I posted in health I got no replies and I need a reply. Thank you)
Sorry this happened. Unfortunately, the T-Rex bulbs aren't safe to use yet either, they're still working on them. I think for now, your best bet would be to get the Repti-Sun 10.0 fluorescent. In the meantime, I would make sure to take her out in the sun as much as you can and also use liquid calcium. What was the bulb that you were using that was ready for a replacement and how old was it?
