UVB - Researchers have found that most birds benefit from UVB. Exposure to UVB allows birds to synthesis vitamin D3 in the skin through a special process involving the preen gland. Vitamin D3 is essential for proper calcium metabolism. This is necessary for normal growth, maintenance of strong bones and egg production. Lack of UVB can also lead to behavioural issues.
UVA - "visable light": Birds have specialised retinas that enabel them to see UVA, helping them to recognise mates, locate food and identify different species. Using lighting that emits UVA can help curb feather picking and othe destructive behaviours. Without UVA birds are deprived of the full colour spectrum they see in nature and are colourblind! UVA is necessary for the psychological health of your bird.
