Does my bearded dragon need a light on at night? I’ve read yes and no on different websites so I’m a little confused. Also can you recommend a good information book to get so I have more info on them since this is our first one

No, Rango does not need a light at night. He may need a heat source, such as a ceramic heat emitter (CHE), if nighttime temperatures drop below 70 F. A CHE will emit heat without visible light.
