Hi, I want to improve my Bird’s lighting, which is currently 2 screw-in compact full-spectrum bulbs.

I like the look and description of the Full Spectrum Economy Daylight Bulb with Clamp Light & Timer.

A couple of questions….can I hang it from the ceiling over her cage?

Stephanie M. needs to know:

Hi. I am building a new house with a bird room (for a 30+-year-old female Moluccan cockatoo) located in the middle of the house (where all the excitement happens).

It will have a drain and water for easy cleaning, plus doors for nighttime.

It will also have appropriate lighting.

I will need to install wet-protected light fixtures (easiest is typical shower recessed 6″ fixtures that take standard Edison base bulbs).

That’s my question…if the room is 10’2″W x 5’6″D x 8′ 4″H, how many lights do I need?

Thanks for any advice you can lend
