That's such an amazing cage!

Wow, that's great!! It's way more awesome than my attempt...

This is mine (for tiny roborovski hamsters):





This shows how I attached the wheel to the wooden "tables" (shelves):


And how I attached the water bottle after much annoyance with the "sippy" bottles

Thanks I love the bin cages, they're nice n deep so I can put loads of shavings in and bury a tubing network and a bed so there's extra floor space

amazing work berkana!!

I think your cage looks really good Berkana, I like the way you made it into two levels with the shelves and your two robos are so cute

Your bin looks like the one I'm going to be getting for my hamster too

Thanks It was kind of thrown together quickly as I agreed to adopt them from someone who bought 4 "females" n ended up with 20! (one was apparently male!). I already had a dwarf hammy cage which my rescued syrian came in, so thought I'd use that but changed my mind lol. The bin I used is an 80l one - from Wilkinsons. Think they're on sale at the mo for £5 as they're getting some new ones in
