What is UVA/B Light and Why do Reptile Need it?

Most reptile need both UVA and UVB light to be healthy. UVA light provides them with warmth and the comfort of sunlight. They need to maintain the correct body temperature to regulate their metabolism, breed, and support their immune system.

Turtles are a good example!

UVB light is also critical for a turtle’s health and wellbeing. They need UVB light to produce vitamin D3. This vitamin is necessary for turtles to metabolize calcium. Without it, their shells and bones will not grow properly. Without enough UVB light, turtles will suffer from metabolic bone diseases that are painful and fatal.

Turtles also need UVB light to properly digest their food. Without it, turtles can suffer from malnutrition and die.
