Hi everyone, so if you have read my previous thread you may know my hamster Tibbles is a chewer, she picked up the habit from her previous owner after living in the smallest cage ever. Although she has come on really well and doesn't chew half as much as she used to she still does it occasionally and so I have to put toilet roll tubes around the bars which as you can imagine makes so much noise so she has to be moved downstairs every night so I can get some sleep. Over the past few weeks I've been looking on eBay, preloved and gumtree incase an ikea detolf pops up, I've always wanted one but because the Hamsters cages are the rspca recommended cage requirements I wasn't going to go out and spend £40 anytime soon. So a seller on eBay is selling 4 ikea detolf's in my area! They are currently on 99p and end on Sunday, so I can see myself getting a couple for an amazing price!
Now I'm not a 100% sure I'm getting these I just wanted to ask a couple of questions before I did buy it.
I was hoping to split the detolf into two cages for my Syrian's Bruno and Tibbles but was just wondering would this be suitable seem as though they are Syrian's?
Also does anyone have any advice on making the lid for the cage, I've seen a few techniques but was wondering what method is the best to make the lid? I don't want anything to complicated as its my dad who will be making it and he isn't the best at DIY projects bless him
Finally if you have any advice overall on the detolf please let me know. Once again sorry for the long thread i just get carried away haha
