Answer 2

Check the pricing yourself but,

Tank (bigger the better 29+)

Under tank heating pad (size depends on size of setup you get.)

bedding (aspen preferably)

Water dish (Big enough that the snake can cover itself when shedding)

Water conditioner for the water (Reptisafe)

Decor is up to you, but give it something it can hide under and climb on. (So it can thermo regulate its temperature.)

Thermometer

Others will debate but I always offer basking light and UV

Heating element (Including Lamp/Bulb)

UV (UVA/UVB for calcium absorption)

Food (live or frozen)

Feeding tongs (if frozen)

Thermos (for heating frozen food)

Separate cage for feeding in.  (So your snake won't bite you every time you try to handle it.
