I'll be setting up my first cage and want to ensure proper lighting. The birds will be along the same wall as the large center (and only) window in the room.
I already own a Dazor light and an Ottlite, but am not sure these are full spectrum lights and appropriate for the birds.
Help!

Re: Full Spectrum Lighting
What I have found that works well for me is I changed the bulbs in my main light in the bird room with full spectrum bulbs purchased at Menards for $4 - $5 per bulb. They are CFL's and supposed to last longer.
