How do I know if my iguana's heat lamp is coated with PTFE or Teflon? I have birds too which PTFE is toxic.

Is this a ceramic lamp? If it is, it's safe, the heating coils are built in and should not overheat. If it's not, then just go to a hardware store and buy one of the clip on aluminum sheild lamps- about $10- and put in the correct bulb for both UV and heat. I also have birds and I use nothing with non-stick material- including TEFLON.

Ugh. Devil-may-care pet owners. Am I right?
Like a few years ago when a priest caught a sentinel lizard in his dryer and was heard to exclaim, “Oh my goodness polite! A %&*@ing lizard!” That adolescent reptile had, in all probability, been put out on the street by a bored or disgruntled owner.
Or back in August when a mate was shocked to find a giant lizard sunning itself in its very unnatural home — a park in Sarnia, Ont. A reptile expert followed up on that for fear that b if and said it’s actually fairly common for undependable pet owners to get sick of their animals and just let them walk. Or worm. Or slither. In this case, the green iguana was likely hatched on a South American lizard steading then shipped north to a loving home. After a few weeks, the lizard’s proprietress presumably became overwhelmed with the constant snuggling, companionship and all-embracing eagerness to please that his new pet lizard exhibited. He no doubt opened his front door and let the lizard run natural. Perhaps with a gentle prod using a long stick.
Pets are a source of enjoyment and fulfillment for most people. Pets like dogs and cats serve as loyal companions to people and are rewarded with tender loving care by their owners. However, there are people who pour out their affection to exotic pets.
Exotic pets are named as such because they aren’t domesticated and tamed and are most often found in the wild. However, the popularity of exotic animals as pets has encouraged pet stores to stock up on exotic pets to meet the rising demand in the market.
When a person hears exotic pet, the first thing that comes into his mind is an animal that is uncommon and maybe wild. There are quite harmless exotic pets like hamsters, mice, guinea pigs and rabbits. On the other hand, there are also exotic pets that may seem ferocious and wild at first glance.
Reptiles are one of the most favored exotic pets especially people who have a love for the outdoors. There are different kinds of reptiles but the mere sound of their names can evoke fear from people who don’t know an iota about their nature.

Among the common reptiles that have been purchased or adopted as exotic pets are snakes, crocodiles, turtles and iguanas. The frightening lead character in the legend of the Loch Ness is said to be a reptile. No one can of course validate this belief and scientists are still at a loss as to the truth behind claims of people who have seen the monster.
But not all reptiles are scary. The misconceptions people have about the nature of reptiles that are often regarded as exotic pets came from ignorance and lack of willingness to accept reptiles as exotic pets.
