Looks good so far. Of course after you get him and take care of him, you'll realize little odds and ends that will help a bit. The water bowl in the cage.. Not to many will drink from it, most use it as a toilet. Brand new spray bottle will come in handy, for spraying his head to drink. Most drink better if it's dripped on the nose, and a lot of water is gained from the veggies they eat. Tank should have little humidity. With the water bowl and hot lights, you'll realize the humidity will go up. Also a needless syringe could be used for letting them drink. Mine are trained to it. I put it in the tank and they know it's time to drink. Also this will come in handy if they ever need a little help eating. Sometimes I give them a treat that I mix up and give to them with the syringe.

Mine don't eat the pellets to much so it lasts a while here. I would say if they like it and eat it daily it would most likely last a month. Mine lasts a while longer cause I just use it for variety on the salad, and in the mixture of the treat I feed with the syringe.

Only thing I would add to your list is a nice sized basking rock. They hold heat very well Oh and an empty jar for dusting your criclets

Sounds like you have a good list going and are very well prepared, wish everyone that was buying a dragon was like that
