Question
Hi please tell me how we protect our budes from cold if they are ill what can i do and also please tell me what is the best time for budges Breeding.

Answer
If you need to keep them warm, try placing them in a warm room and covering their cage with a thick towel or blanket.  You can also put them in a bathroom and run a hot shower.  The warm steam will be good for them.  Keep things quiet and dark so that they can get plenty of sleep.

In captivity they can breed almost any time, but make sure that they are healthy first.  Spring and fall is usually when they breed in the wild, so keep those conditions in mind.  Warm days with lots of light seem to help trigger breeding.
