Why is providing UVB light important for reptiles? Reptiles require Vitamin D3 in their system to synthesise healthy calcium levels to maintain bones, growth and egg production. Without Vitamin D3, your reptile can be susceptible to deadly Metabolic Bones Disease, blindness, mouth rot and other illnesses. For many reptiles, UVB light is the main way that Vitamin D3 is produced. For others, they may be able to get sufficient Vitamin D3 through other ways such as food. Therefore, providing UVB light is critical for many reptiles to stay healthy and thrive.
Does my reptile require UVB light? It’s important to note that all reptiles can be safely provided with UVB light, so if you are uncertain about your pet’s requirements, it is safe - and recommended - to install UVB lighting in your terrarium.
