Are you still asking about BTS's?

If so, I wouldn't use the chicken wire because they might injure their noses or feet by pushing against the wire. I would have solid sides.

As for climbing, no I don't believe they climb. I do have a half log that they do climb on but it's only 3" off the ground. They are like sausages with tiny little legs and feet, not made for climbing.

They need more floor space than height. Mine are all between 15 and 18" long.
