I know of this one but he's pretty vague on the details and measurements - Naturnahe Hamstergehege: Detolf mit Aufsatz für Goldhamster

If anyone has any ideas would be great, plan on heading to B&Q tomorrow or Thursday.

Cheers.

Hi,
I was the same wanting more head height for my detolf. Being rubbish at making stuff and also not wanting to pay out a lot , I choose to attach an old cage lid to the detolfs inside wire, as well as the three shelves. The shelves I attached using self adhesive cable clips.
You could even add two lids, and one glass shelf between if you wamted to.

I'll pop some pics to show what I managed to come up with

I still need to get a platform and some hanging bits, but thats another reason I like this way of doing it. Instead of it being an empty raised space, it is another level for my hamster to play and explore in. 😊


Sorry I know you asked a different question, but just thought I'd share a different option 🤗
