Changing my canary's 12/12 light cycle. Will it affect molting?

Question

I asked a question a few days ago, but I can't recall which pet it was about. I still have not received a reply. I have two dogs, Jake and Tasha, and a Canary, Ringo. I think it was about Ringo, and Lighting. Anyway, I also wanted to know if giving Ringo light 12 and 12 since his Birth, 2 yrs. ago, and changing to my schedule now, will that interfere with his Molting times? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 4 years and 11 months old

Unfortunately, I can't see your other question, so if it hasn't been answered, asking it again may help! Without knowing your new schedule, it would be hard to say if it'll interfere with molting. If you're greatly increasing or decreasing the amount of light, it can affect schedules a bit, and may cause some stress to Ringo as he adjusts which could change when he molts next. However, if the schedule is similar, or if he's been adjusted to it for a while now, it should be fine. He may molt at a slightly different time with the changes, but continuing with your routine is best to keep him active and healthy.
