Hi all,
I'm adopting two adult redfoot males from a rescue in a week and a half (one is ~10' and the other 11'). She has had them for a few weeks, and thinks that the two should stay together. I know that some redfoots are social creatures, but I have also seen some people saying that two males don't do well together. She seems to know a lot about them, so is it possible that they'll be just fine?
On that note, has anyone had any success with two story enclosures for redfoots? I live in an apartment, so I am planning on building a three story enclosure: 6'x2' for the bottom two levels and a 3'x2' on the top (for a total of 30 sq ft plus the ramps which are around 12 more feet). I am considering boosting the foot to 6'x3' so they'll have more room to spin, but man, my space is tight as is... I live in Montana (northern USA), so while I can keep them outside in the summer with more roaming space, I'd like to give them a comfortable winter home indoors.
I tried to find multistory plans, but most had "partial" second stories, not the full set up I was thinking of.
Any thoughts or guidance would be awesome. Thanks!
