Go to Wal-Mart and you will find something there for those, can't remember what they're called.

(1) pair of hemostats
Go to a dollar store and pick up some tongs.

(1) package substrate (reptile bark or aspen, whatever)

Use paper towel or newspaper.

(1) clamp lamp w/blue night bulb
(1) rheostat [for clamp lamp]

Don't need either if you have a UTH. Heat from the top isn't necessary, it's the belly heat that counts.

(2) plastic plant decorations
(1) medium water dish

Dollar Store. Don't really need the plant decorations though. Look for a cheap plastic bowl or even a water dish for a kitten.

I think the Walmart thermometer/hygrometer with probe that your referring to is Accu-rite. I use these and would recommend them.
