uvb light problems

[poga7961]

My babys uvb lights keep blowing. I am at a lose here I buy a new one and a monthor two it blows and it hard to keep up with them they blow between pay checks so he has to go a week at the most with out his daytime light. His viv is by a window but not sure he his getting enough light

Firstly, Move the viv away from the window. The direct sunlight coming into a glass tank acts like a giant magnifying glass which could easily kill your dragon on a sunny day.

Secondly, your dragon is receiving no uvb at all from being near the window. Glass filters out nearly 99% of all uvb radiation. So any uvb that does get through your window (nill at best) will be stopped by the glass in the dragons tank.

Thirdly, what bulb are you using? And what type of fixture?
We can't help you unless you provide us details..
