Default Wheels for Syrians

I’m planning on getting a Syrian hamster soon but I’m struggling to find a 12inch wheel anywhere. I need a wheel that’s the right size and preferably a silent wheel but it doesn’t have to be. I live in the uk aswell, so has anyone got any suggestions on where I can buy one that’s isnt ridiculously expensive.

Mine have the Trixie wooden wheels which are pretty quiet. I think the cheapest is zooplus but they are out of stock at the moment: Trixie Wooden Exercise Wheel | Free P&P on orders £29+ at zooplus!

I would recommend either the 28cm plastic Trixie wheel or 28cm wooden Trixie wheel - I have both these wheel for my Syrian and they are fairly silent. For the wooden wheel I painted mine with clear Plastikote paint to make the wheel easier to clean and helps it not to get ruined by pee.

I've got several of the 20cm version of the Trixie Plastic Wheel for my Chinese and considering the price, I think they're a pretty good buy. I've only had issues with one being a little noisy but some oil seemed to sort that out.

Although I've not used the larger 28cm version of this wheel, I think at that kind of price, it's definitely worth a try.

Trixie wheels are great. My hamster adores his. I ordered from Amazon and it arrived within a few days.
