Why your recommended Avian Lights do not include at least UV-A wavelengths?

Great info on your website. To make use of any calcium my birds ingest, they need Vitamin D, which I assumed they were getting from full spectrum Ott lights. With the shift to LEDs, I'm wondering why your recommended avian lights do not include at least UVA wavelengths. Do avian zoos purchase some type of combo of lights so that the UV spectrum is included? 

We can confirm that our single-color LED products do not offer ultraviolet output, though we do also sell the realUV™ LED Strip Lights. In installations such as reptile and avian habitats where the UV-A and UV-B are beneficial for the animals, some of our customers prefer to utilize a supplemental bulb that can offer them ultraviolet output.

Unfortunately, we are not aware of the exact product make or model that these customers use to supply those wavelengths.
