You will need to provide a UVB Light (I use the Repitsun 5.0, the Iguana Light is the exact same thing just package differently) this should be placed within 18 inches over the site she normally basks in such a way she cannot get to it and burn herself, but still allows the light to shine unfiltered down on her.

As for heat I use a regular household light bulb. You will need to check the temperture (use a thermometer most of us can be really bad judges of temperature) to see which wattage provides the correct temperature.

Finally, you can check out Melissa Kaplan's site she a good article on free roaming igs.

Good Luck
