Answer
Hi Mark, All incandescent bulbs produce some heat so even a regular household bulb for lighting can be used until you get your heat bulb replaced. It obviously won't produce the ideal temp but you can cover part of the tank lid to hold in a bit more heat. Don't try to feed him until you get your bulb replaced. I wouldn't panic, they would endure temperature variations in their natural environment as well.
