I've got a two year old Syrian who's quite large:

We bought him a Duna Funa cage when he was 8 weeks old, he was smaller but we didn't expect him to grow much! We soon found that the wheel was useless because he couldn't fit in it. So instead he'd just walk on the top of it. So after a month or so I replaced the wheel with a 6", and that was still too small, so I got a nice 8" one and that seems like the ideal size.

Here he is in the newer wheel:

The only issue is that to fit this wheel, I had to take out the top shelf. So what he is left with is a bit boring. I try to play with him lots, but I know he must be bored in his cage.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a cage that's a good size (i.e. room for some interesting toys) and also has some tubes, etc.?
