Default Sandys cage

I finished this over 2 weeks ago, but my phone and computer had an argument so couldn't upload photos.

Anyway, it's 110x50x50cm, it's not finished yet, by all accounts..but for now I'm not working on it.
It's got a 20cm piece of acrylic at the front and two sliding acrylic doors.
The piece of 2x4 is just structural so the hammy doesn't come into contact with it.




this is it with the 3 substrates, childrens play sand, megazorb and corn cob bedding





'ooh, there's food in the new cage too ^.^'

She seems really happy in there, and I have another cage the same size on the bottom floor.

That's fab Katie! I'm sure she's delighted!

Is the big glass jar the loo?

The glass jar is the sand bath, sandy enjoys burying her sand bath but we don't have that issue with the jar (which saves me a lot of chinchilla sand)
The little triangular pot by the wheel is where she goes to the loo one day I hope to make her a little house and put it in it's own section in there, which is why it's an odd shape

She does seem to, she's always been my most confident hamster, and loves digging it all around.
Needless to say the substrate is no longer in 3 tidy sections

I still need to make a wheel stand, but haven't had chance recently >.<
