Keep doing your homework, you're sounding like you're off to a good start

oh, and waiting til you get back from your trip to bring a new snake home sounds like a good idea to me as well.
That's the plan! :3 I keep remembering things I need to buy after I've already left the store, so it's probably for the best the trip is still a ways away.

one of the first things you should research and buy is a thermostat. it will be the single most important piece of equipment you will buy. you'll need to figure out what type of heating will work best for you, but the thermostat will always be part of the equation.

good luck! 😀
Thank you! I actually purchased a Herpstat yesterday, so we're covered on thermostats, and UTH is gonna be the main heating method. If it's not enough there will probably be a bulb involved somewhere, but we won't know until the thermostat comes in. (all the science, alllll the testing)
