Okay... that's not heat, though. It's just UVB. Do you have the coil ReptiSun or the tube? Do you have any other bulbs besides this?

The coil type (could be known as a compact bulb) is bad for tort's and turtles eyes, and I read that they can affect baby animals eyes worse than adults :(
For heat she has another lamp but I´m going to switch it this weekend. I didn´t know bulbs hurt them!! Thanks!! I´m going to change that!

Just the coil bulbs! Lots of discussion of why so, but there's a link in my signature.
Thank you, I thought you meant she only had UVB!
