Basking in sun

[Lutchmom]

My tegu keeps leaving her basking area (with light bulb) to lay in the sun that comes through the window. I read that the window blocks UVB. I'm not sure what to do about this.

maybe consider taking her outside and let her bask. if you have a leash, try walking her.

Windows and glass in general does indeed block UVB. How long is the sun hitting her enclosure for? is she still getting a decent amount of time under her primary UVB light?

Most animals know their own bodies and as long as they have access to the things they need they will appropriately balance it out.

I personally wouldn't worry.

Or if your that worried about it get a regular uvb that doesn't put out heat and put it over the new basking spot.
