You know Bob. Your Tegus get enough sunshine in the summer month's that they don't need to be supplemented even through the winter. Everyone doesn't have that luxury. I myself don't think UV lighting is all it's made out to be either.I have kept moniotrs for years with no UV lighting at all. I never had any ill effects from it either. This subject can be argued many ways and forever. LOL It takes different practices for different set ups also.Each person needs to figure out each situation needs. People in the Northern states can't do what we can in the south. That's why all the successful breeders are in the south. Plain and simple Sunlight may be the key to it all. But what are the people that can't rely on that supposed to do. Should we only sell Tegus to people who live in the south. Someone has got to be the one to find out what levels can be used. This subject is a really good subject. All sides need to be taken into consideration . When discussing it also.
