    1. A rack to contain the snakes, makes life so much easier when caring for multiple snakes.
    2. A good thermostat so you can keep accurate temperatures.
    3. A temperature gun so you know what your temperatures are in the tubs.
    4. A good source of feeders, doesn't do any good to have snakes without a regular food supply.
    5. quality stock IE: The best example snakes you can find.

    I'd make that 2 thermostats: I have one for the rack, and an identical one for my DIY incubator. It's the most expensive part of the incubator.
