    Supplies:
    I've acquired many from Walmart, Target, and online. There is one water bowl in particular that I absolutely have to have. They're called "PureNess" are are made by Van Ness Plastics. Target used to carry them for about a buck to a buck fifty apiece, in a size that fits into my Vision hatchling rack bins PERFECTLY. They have smooth edges and undersides, and finger holds, so they double as a water bowl and hide, and don't scratch up the snakes. They come in other sizes, too. My local Target stores stopped carrying them, and now I can only get them for an inflated price at Pamida. I'm considering registering for wholesale purchases with Van Ness and just buying 100 of them at once (about 70 cents apiece, I think).
    This is the wonder bowl: http://www.vannessplastic.com/forcat...s_A1_photo.jpg

    Apart from that...
    I get other stuff from Big Apple Herp, Spyder Robotics, The Bean Farm, and Pangea Reptile Supplies. No one I've found so far has the best prices on EVERYTHING. The Bean Farm is tops for flex watt, and has simple meds, vitamins, etc. Big Apple Herp has awesome cheap heat cord that is very long-lasting and sturdy, hovabator incubators, and and good thermometers/hygrometers. Spyder Robotics just has herpstats. Pangea has Repashy stuff, awesome elevated ledges that hold disposable cups for feeding arboreal geckos, and magnetic stuff (like a potted plant holder), acrylic atrium cages...stuff like that. Good prices, and they run great sales sometimes.

    Animal Plastics has the best prices on adult racks, and Vision has the best prices (per slot) on hatchling racks.
    I got my temp gun from Pro Exotics.
    I get shipping supplies from superiorshippingsupplies.com, and from tsksupply.com (they have good, cheap snake bags)--

    I did once receive a somewhat debilitated, but live, roach with an order, which I was less than thrilled with, so check your boxes. (Not enough to stop me saving money ordering from them, but I will be inspecting future shipments, lol. I suspect this is a possibility when getting things shipped from anywhere down south where things are warehoused with food sources, or animals are also kept. Something to keep in mind. To protect the possibly innocent, I won't mention which supplier).

    I buy most of my rodents locally from reptilerodent.com now, but I used to use rodentpro for frozen rodents, for the most part.

    For those who have small collections, I would recommend The Mouse Factory, as their rodents are pristine, and come vacuum-packed on trays, rather than in ziploc bags. The snakes absolutely do prefer them--I assume they are fresher and the lack of freezer burn makes them smell nicer. They are more expensive if you are feeding tons of animals, though, and rodentpro rodents don't have time to freezer burn if you're feeding them all off in a couple of months.
