Answer 1

Get an aquarium for a cage. Robo's can slip through even the tightest cracks in a wire cage so an aquarium that is at least 10 gallons would be the best possible cage you could get. Also don't use cedar shavings in the bottom of the cage. They have fumes and oils which are deadly to rodents.

Answer 2

They don't bite, they're SUPER fast (the most timid!!!!), and they can sqeeze through the most impossible places you can think of if tempted!!!! I had one robo since last year... She escaped once and it took 3 days to catch her. I advise a tank tall enough so that one can't boost the other out. My friend has two robos. Although one is super timid, the other seems to think she isn't a robo. She nibbles, and she is super fine with being held. A vitamin supplement ment for them would probably be worked into the food that you feed them, or in certain treats. I hope that this helps, good luck, and have fun with your little buddies!
