    this alllll depends on your choice of enclosure, but...
    you will need at least 2 hides, a water dish, and preferably 2 human heating pads. the maintaining of temps and humidity is all covered in our caresheet.

    You really don't need any lights such as UVB, but if you wanna provide a photo cycle you might use common house lights. Water is provided from a dish. Heat/Humidity is something you need to fine tune to perfection based on the ambient humidity and temps outside the enclosure. 2 hides, 90-95 degree basking with an 85 ambient.
