Thanks for your post, allie!

UVB is not essential for Alligator Lizards although they are prone to metabloic bone disease (MBD) which cannot be passed down their breeding but is caused by lack of vitamin/calcium. UVB is an excellent idea and will ensure a healthy life for your lizard!! Your alligator lizard can get vitamin D from UVB. If you do not want to spend $10+ on UVB bulbs every 3 months, then be sure to dust your alligator lizards' food with vitamin D and calcium supplemenets!

The best UVB lighting you can use are...
Repti Glo
Repti Sun
Mercury Vapor Bulb
Powersun

Remember to never use coils!
