Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I second that. BOI is not the place for this concern. This should be moved.

AP offers different fixtures for different bulbs-the ones for the higher temp UV bulbs being more expensive. Did you have these installed, or just the "regular" fixtures?

I agree..... This query is about a 2 year old cage and a possible longevity issue. Unless it is guaranteed for life, and the manufacturer refuses to make good on such a guarantee, then this is not an appropriate topic on the BOI.
Accordingly, I am moving it....

You should also be looking into the wattage that is recommended in the fixture. It is quite possible that you have too large a bulb installed and that is what is causing your issue. Every situation has a rating for the wattage, you should definetly know this before you have a larger issue than some discoloration.

just an update..They called me last night and i told them what happened..she said they are testing high heat bulbs and are now installing nylon spacers so the ceramic sockets dont get as hot. She was wonderful and is sending me a new top for the dammaged cage as well as spacers for the other one I have.
Animal Plastics produce the best caging and I am thrilled at thier customer service.

Like I said in my previous post. "Animal Plastics has a very well deserved reputation for having the BEST customer service. I think you will be hard pressed to find someone that can prove otherwise."
I would still recommend that you check with the manufacturer of your lighting and make sure you are meeting their requirements for proper use of the heat lamps.
