Sounds good but I would make it a bit taller, like 2 feet, because I remember my male loved to jump up and walk aroud upside down on the lid, then he just fell down and I was scared he was going to break something. It would be better to have it high enough up that they wouldn't jump up. Unless you have sides they can climb, then it would be better to have it lower, so they don't fall as far. Jane is in a wood and screen cage (for ventalation since she is outside and it gets very hot, like 105F) the dimensions are about 1.5" by 1.5" by just short of 4"
This is good for her, I think, and hopefully for another male.

I just didn't know if you were using the same stuff as that cage.
