    First time setting up for a new baby, suggestions?

    Hey! So I'm planning on getting my BP middle-end of January. Just ordered a bunch of stuff that should be coming in the mail over the next month.

    What I have so far:

    B.A.R.R.S (herpcages) 24x12x12 plastic enclosure. Since it was just a little bit more expensive than a tank/clamping top and I figured I'd just spend the extra money, since I heard all glass walls can cause stress? I also got the one with the back vent instead of mesh top since it gets very dry sometimes where I live.

    Ultratherm heating pad and Zoomed 500r thermostat

    Two medium ABS plastic hide boxes. I've also started collecting toilet paper/paper towel tubes (think those might work well as additional hides? I know the cage is a little bigger than some places suggest for a baby so I wanted to throw a bunch of stuff in it)

    Van Ness crock water bowl

    I haven't gotten a thermometer/hygrometer yet. Are there some that are better than others?

    I was going to just use newsprint or paper towel as substrate

    I already have some hemostats for feeding.

    Is there anything else I need?

    I'll post pictures once everything arrives.
