painting/staining screech owl boxes



Friends, I'm wondering if anyone can suggest a benign stain or paint for
the outside of two new screech owl boxes.  the makers used pine in one case
and i'm unsure of the other wood, except it is not cedar or redwood.

also, one was built following a design that suggested putting a perch
inside the box below the opening, and making cuts in the wall below the
perch -- like little steps for the young birds to use to get up and out.

Does anyone know whether those are nice, or necessary?  thanks
