Thanks the insightful and experienced advice I received here, I've placed my order for a T8 from Animal Plastics.
I wanted to get a T10 for the additional headroom, reasoning that it would be easier for me to clean. The nice lady at Animal Plastics told me that it would take between 10 and 12 weeks to receive a T10, but I could get a T8 in about a month. That sold me. I'm sure a T8 will be just fine anyway. I got the sliding door version with a lock and heat tape. Apparently they can install dimmable LED lighting as well, though it isn't on their website.
As soon as my boss steps out, I'm going to call Pro-Products and get the run down on an RHP.
I also ordered a Redline Herpstat 2, as it was on sale. I won't use it for a while but I'll need it anyway, so why not save a few bucks.
Once everything arrives and I figure out how to work it properly, I can start looking to get the noodle.
There is a reptile expo here in Mass on May 7. Are such events good opportunities or would I be better off visiting local (local in the broad sense) breeders? I understand that BPs can be bought over the internet and shipped via FedEx, but it is still really cold here. Besides, I think I would be happier if I picked out my BP from among many, rather than getting what shows on.
I'm extremely excited, as is my daughter.
