so my basking light for my red foot went out this evening. She has her UVB bulb and a Che as well. I won't be able to replace until tomorrow evening. Will she be okay?

In a pinch, you can use a regular house hold bulb for heat.
(Not for long term.)
I'm not aware of your situation, but I've never owned a Redfoot that ever basked. They always hang out in the shade. But this is steamy Florida.
