UV bulb for my birds
I had to replace one of the bulbs. The price is comparable as any other place. The only issues I had was how long it took to get here like four days. I understand wanting for something and it taken four days but something you need as a replacement ASAP four days is long time. I will buy from Walmart again this product.

Great
This light bulb is good for your pet birds. You put this light 12-18 inches from the top of the cage. And what it does it sends down heat waves on your bird. Its like if he was outside getting sun. The light works like if it was the sun and the birds need that cause it helps them with there feathers,bones and skin.
Verified Purchase
A very worthwhile purchase if you have birds.
Now my birds can have sunshine inside and I don't have to worry about squirls opening the cage doors (to get the food) and letting my birds free! Yes, that actually happened to one of my budgies!
