Full Spectrum Lighting

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!

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.

Ah, good to know! That's what I'll do. Thank you!
