Hi Lee,
The cages are ok. The make good outside cages, but are flimsey. Here they
are pretty inexpensive and make good additions, but if they are costly I
would prefer the metal framed screen cages.

I find they breed very well with the addition of the lights,....no with the
eggs would only be fertile! ;-)
I do find they like and use the baking lights I give them. I had fewer
eggs, again infertile, last year with out the basking lights.
