Sulcata lighting

[dumbly]

does my sulcata need a uv/heat bulb on if he’s getting out and about in the sun outside during the day?
What kind of light is recommended for night time?I assume he needs daytime and nighttime to be different.
Can he get too much uv if he’s been outside then under the lamp inside?

Nope, you don’t need one!
You need to be using a ceramic heat emitter for night, not a lamp.

how Many hours per day outside does he need to not need the uv bulb?

how Many hours per day outside does he need to not need the uv bulb?

I would go ahead and say at least one 3-4 times a week, or 1 hour per inch of shell.
