Help a robo noob

[vanilla-yazoo]

Heya!

In september I hope to get one or two robo's

One would be in my mini duna, two would go into a zoozone1

I know its best to put two of everything if I get two, Wheels, houses, possibly bottle, scattering food, and no levels.
Is there any other advice if i get two to keep them happy together?
I have had dificulty with the other dwarfs staying together, so I was hoping for only one so I would never have it fight.
Whats the best thing to do? If i have two i would keep my mini duna just in case.
If i have one itl have lots of toys and in september i should have my hamster room so lots of space to run about

I know they take a long time to tame up, thats why I hope to get them at the show in september, from lovely breeders rather then p@h. tho if its best i get a single i may have to go that way..

any suggestions? >.<

I regularly have White Faced Robos for sale which are very tame and live quite near to London. I would recommend having a 2nd cage handy just incase of any fighting. You seem to have researched very well and have covered just about everything. please contact me if you require any further info.

My other suggestions would be to start with the cage very simple (neccessities) then gradually add new toys aned things.
Also, always keep old bedding to mix in with the clean bedding at clean out times

mickbirch: Thats great to hear! I live in oxford so I can travel to london in an hour by train, I have a mini duna cage i will be keeping hold of incase they do require seperating. I would be looking to get them around september-october time.
Im happy i have covered everything. Im completely new to Robo's so I just hope to do it all right. Thank you for your help and infomation on your white faced Robo's.

Fluffymunchkins: thank you for the suggestions! I will feel bad looking at freds cage and looking at a cage with no toys, but i will add things slowly. Myabe using the toy duing play time, so they get used to it together, before introducing it to the cage inviroment? would that help them not dominate one toy?
I will add some old bedding with their new bedding, thats a great idea, keeps their smell with them thankyou!!!

Yes,it should help, I gave my boys lots of toys and the wheels while they ran round in the bath tub. So that their scent would be on them first.
Then I gradually introduced them to the cage
