lighting help needed

so i went to a bulbs plus store today. picked up a bulb that i am not going to open until i am sure it is good.

 

it is a super UV coil compact fluorescent. full spectrum daylight. UVA-B rays the UVB rays are 290nm-320nm. the UVA wavelentghts are from 320nm-400nm.

 

i am going to place this in a clamp lamp over mojo's cage. it is an energy saver bulb 13 watts = 50 watt incandescent lighting.

 

will this be good?

That's a good decent size and the filaments are good

 

No closer than 4 ft from the cage, about 1 hr a day. Try to position it so light is aiming downward over your bird.

 

Oh, you're putting it over him----good.<br><br>Post edited by: Dave007, at: 2010/02/26 22:37

the cage stands 6 feet tall. the best i can get it is 2 feet away, is this o.k.?

 

i am going to have the light on a timer so i was thinking of doing a 30-45 minute cylce twice a day. is this good?
