Default Re: Cage size for a syrian?

I have a robo and Syrians. My Syrians are 5x the size of my robo. Look at the palm of your hand, a Syrian would fill that space, unless you have huge hands.

Smallest cage I have for a Syrian is 70x50 I think. Ideally that'd be ok temporary accommodation. Unfortunately once you have a 11" wheel, bowls, a hide and some chew toys there's hardly any room. :/

In the future, any Syrian I have would be in a indoor guinea pig/rabbit cage and mesh the bars. They're typically 100x50 and I've seen them for £30.

Just for comparison purposes I have added 2 photos of my Syrian setups. Grey base is the smaller one, one with the pink wheel is a zoozone and is a guinea pig cage. You can see which one is better IMO.
