Checklist for First Timer

Hey everybody. Thank you again for all the helpful answers you've given me thus far. It's saved me a lot of hassle.

Now I just need to put together a checklist of things I need to finally get the snake. I'll start the list with what I know I need, feel free to add things. =]

1. Enclosure (duh). I'm going PVC. I have two questions here, though. Are there advantages towards having a white versus black cage? Also, is 12" really sufficient, or is 16+" preferable?

2. Thermostat. This one seems nice.

3. Heating pad. This one to go with the thermostat.

4. Heat lamp. Not sure what I need here. Any suggestions?

5. Thermometer/Hygrometer. This is cheap and has pretty awesome reviews so far...

6. Misc. Hides, branches, water bowl... Pretty easy.

7. Substrate. I've seen a lot of people using newspaper, and others using actual earth-like stuff. Again, any recommendations?

And I think that rounds up the list. If I missed anything, you're welcome to chime in!

=D
