Heat Lamp Bulb Colors?

I have a simple colombian red tail ( she's not simple to me of course but she's not a morph or anything ). She's abour 24 inches or so, strong healthy, eats well all the good stuff. Her only issue is she's a heavy duty burrowing. I noticed that when she had a regular house bulb in her heat lamp she didn't burrow. She basked and hung out. I replaced that ( she only had the house light bulb for about 4 days. Our petstore was closed. )with red heating bulb. I believe it's 100 watt or summat. Anyway she's back to burrowing.

Could it be the color of the light that's stressing her out?
