The light should be a full spectrum UVB light. I set mine on top of the cages, but in a shed, you may need to put a protective mesh or something around the lights.

I keep my birds in a "shed" during the cold winters here in NJ. It has a window that's about 30 inches wide and that's all I have as far as light out there. I don't go inside the shed after dusk nor before dawn so that I don't disturb them roosting so there was no need for any lights.
