I have been thinking about purchasing a pair of buttons as pets and to breed. I don't know much about them and have a few questions.
#1 ~ Which would be a better place to keep them, inside in my room or outside in the barn?
#2 ~ Which would be a better cage for a pair of buttons, a screened in wooden cage or a 10 gallon reptile tank (Mine has a screened in top)?
#3 ~ Do they prefer warm or cool temperatures? Dry or humid?
#4 ~ Are they hardy?
#5 ~ Are they prone to any specific diseases?
#6 ~ Are they noisey?
#7 ~ Are they easy to take care of?
#8 ~ What should I feed them?
#9 ~ What should I bed them with (chips, straw, cob, etc)?
#10 ~ Would they be more comfortable positioned infront of a window, or in corner with artificial lighting?
#11 ~ How should I furnish their cage (nesting places, plants, sticks and twigs, hidey holes, etc)?
You don't have to try to answer all of my questions, but any knowledge would be greatly appreciated!
