Wow! Great cage! Loved the video! The best part about that cage is the fact that it can take a good depth of bedding. It looked like you had a Syrian in there. People have different views on the depth of bedding but for a Syrian to enjoy burrowing etc you need between 7 and 10 inches with more being the best option. If you can go more than 10 inches your hamster is in burrowing Utopia. You can really use that to your advantage. Go look on YouTube at how people actually place tunnels against the glass under the bedding so they can see their hamster burrowing.
