I house mine in one of those 3 drawer storage containers you can buy at walmart. I will try to find some pictures, I know I have one.

I used the same thing for a while, then decided I wanted to use the drawers for something else. Now I use these..

what kind of food and bedding seem to work the best for you guys to make them thrive???

 

[Claudiusx]

Natural Oats.

Wheat Germ is good too, but I can never find it for some reason. I would use wheat germ but like I said, I can find oats easier. I also grind up like half of the oats in a coffee grinder, so that there is powdered oats, and whole oats. I do it just because it makes me think if its ground up they will eat it better lol.

Same here, old fashioned oats from the can. It can be the cheap stuff. Then feed them veggies. I like carrots, potatoes and excess greens my beardies don't eat that day.
