I have 10 that I started in a rabbit cage in my walk-in closet. That lasted 4 days - they get a little chirpy and start scratching for food that gets things dusty.
Moved them into a HUGE stock tank in the living room and that lasted a week. I had a fine coat of dust all over the whole house.
They are now out in my enclosed sunroom attached to the front of the house. At 4 wks, they poop a lot, do a lot of scratching which gets dust everywhere. I change the wood shavings and vacuum everything once a week.
If I was only going to get 3, I wouldn't hesitate to have them in a basement. I would put them in the biggest container/brooder you can afford. Or get a HUGE box from appliance store.
Good luck and enjoy watching those little darlings grow. Be sure to post some pics.
