Hey everyone! I'm getting a baby pastel mojave on Wednesday and I could use a little help with setup. This isn't actually my first ball python, but I haven't owned one in several years and I want to have all the information so I can get everything perfect for my girl.

I was wondering if anybody could give me suggestions on specific products. For instance, which heating mat would be best for my 20 gallon tank? What thermostat do you recommend? Is a basking light absolutely necessary in your opinion (I've seen a lot of inconsistency on this topic).
I'm also wondering what the best method of temperature and humidity control is.

If you guys could leave some links and some info on products that you have found work great for your ball python, and any other tips and tricks at all, that would be fantastic! I couldn't be more excited for my girl (who will be named Lucille Ball Python, Lucy for short... at least I crack myself up).

Thanks in advance!
