Default Hello! New hamster came home last night

Hello!
Last night Piglet the syrian hamster joined the family. He's now sleeping away in his new Barney cage peacefully.
I don't have any pictures yet as I want to leave him be to settle (that bit is so hard!) so will post some when I can.
He's our first syrian and I'm currently scouring the net for suitable toys. (He already has gnawing bits and toilet roll tubes, half an egg box and a bendy bridge type thing.
Does anyone has suggestions for the best places to buy bits? I have a rat sputnik on the way, but I'm struggling to find much that I think will be a suitable size for him, most of the hamster stuff seems way too small

Welcome. Congratulations on getting a hamster. If you get tubes that are designed for bigger pets, like rats/guinea pigs they will be big enough for a Syrian hamster

As he is a Syrian hamster he may need a bigger wheel than the one that came with the Barney cage as he grows bigger.

Hi & welcome to HC
Congrats on your new ham!
Zooplus & Viovet can be good places to buy things for your ham, as CMB said go for rat sized toys etc for Syrian.
