Default Re: Ball for Robo?

It was the medium saucer Fred had Velma and what frustrated me more was the fact he was near enough two years old when I rehomed him from Gumtree in a mini Duna with a `stuck` plastic wheel that seemed welded to the shelf. He was a normal, happy little chap and was moved into my Gabber Rex tank for obviously more leg room. Looking back, I often wonder if I should have kept him in his mini Duna and just provided him with a silent spinner wheel, but chose to use a flying saucer, like everyone else, just for something different. I regret that now.

Just as an added thought, robos as a species do seem to be more inclined to develop spinning moreso than Russian dwarfs or Chinese hamsters, so perhaps the sidewinding way flying saucer wheels work may not be the best body position for a robo to run? Just a theory I have but something robo owners might want to consider. x
