Ferplast Wheel question :)

Heya chappies

Well I got Kai the Mini Duna yesterday

And I'm using the wheel that comes with it as a spare, I've used a needle to out vasaline on as much of the spindle as I can, but can you take the spindle out?.
I know you can on the Savic Rolly wheels but I'm not sure about the Ferplast ones.
It's a lot silenter now but I'd really like to cake the spindle in vasaline

Take the wheel that came with the mini duna
and destroy it/burn it/dispose of it
they are terrible

-.- honestly you can never have enough spare wheels

what if both Kai and Tessa's wheels gave up the ghost and I'd burned my spares?

I liked mine when Peaches was small enough to use it (i.e. for approx 2 weeks!!

) I found it very quiet and sturdy and would be great for a dwarf hamster! Had to upgrade her to a Savic Rolly and then a Trixie wheel in her large cage. Now waiting for my first Senior Wodent Wheel to arrive, as she has chewed the plastic washer on the spindle inside the Trixie wheel causing it to rattle loudly...........

exactly

it's not to bad a wheel

and with vasaline on it's bearable, but still rattley

I dont mind the ferplast one, they are much better than the savic ones anyway lol

emilyweb · 12-28-2011, 06:21 AM

hmm yes my Rolly is just silly -.- even with loads of vasaline it's still so noisy -.-

There too small though they are like 5inches so not big enough for any dwarf except a Robo. and Most Robo's can't turn them..

emilyweb · 12-28-2011, 06:23 AM

yes John....Robos, do keep up it saves so much time

and besides it's going to be a spare

even when I do get Robos (28th of Jan <33) it'll be a spare

I have a collection of spare rollys lol. Wodent wheels for me all the way! The senior one looked huge when I first got it but then I got used to it and when I bought a junior one for Vanilla it looked tiny (but its the correct size).
