Allison's tank is very good. She must love it. Charlie's tank will do for now. It is plenty good enough for a temporary home.
He is really beautiful. You are right, he has a purple tail. You did very well at the reptile show. He has some nice genetics.
The cart is a good idea. It seems like a much more space efficient set up and if it is fire safe as well then that is better.
You could set up an incubator. A friend of mine does that. My eggs all go to a big incubator at the reptile store. I have too many to fit into a small incubator. Snakes lay large clutches. Lizards usually only have a few eggs at a time. (chameleons have large clutches)
You could have taken another female and it would work out for the two new ones to live with Allison. I wouldn't recommend the Tokays however. You would need a different set up and Tokays bite! They often eat mice and are not friendly lizards. They can get pretty big too so you would need a bigger taller tank. The lid would have to be very secure. Even I am not tempted to get a Tokay.
