Greetings, iam Anthony Helms, Have a two coffee day!
Hey there! Have you ever heard of a Bearded Dragon? They’re awesome little creatures that love to bask in the light at night. You might be wondering why they need light at night, and I’m here to tell you all about it. It turns out that Bearded Dragons need light at night for a few reasons: to regulate their body temperature, to help them sleep better, and even for their overall health. So if you’re thinking of getting one of these cool critters as a pet, make sure you provide them with some nighttime lighting!
What Time Should I Turn My Bearded Dragons Light Off At Night? [Solved]
Okay, so you want your bearded dragon to have 12 hours of light each day. To make sure they get the right amount, set up a timer for their basket lights so they come on at 8am and turn off at 2:45pm. That way, your dragon will get just the right amount of light!
Heat Source: Bearded dragons need a heat source at night to keep their body temperature regulated. This can be provided by an overhead basking light, ceramic heat emitter, or under-tank heater.
UVB Lighting: Bearded dragons also require UVB lighting during the day to help them synthesize Vitamin D3 and absorb calcium for healthy bones and muscles. This should be turned off at night as it can disrupt their sleep cycle.
Temperature Gradient: It is important to provide a temperature gradient in the enclosure so that your bearded dragon can move between warm and cool areas as needed throughout the day and night.
Nighttime Viewing Light: A low wattage red or blue LED light can be used for nighttime viewing without disturbing your bearded dragon’s sleep cycle too much, but should not be used for more than a few minutes at a time as it may still disrupt their sleep patterns if left on too long.
Bearded dragons need light at night to help them regulate their body temperature. Without it, they can become stressed and unhealthy. So, if you’ve got a bearded dragon as a pet, make sure you give ’em some light at night!
