Jack 72???

[princessbarbie1988]

What do you think of this cage? Has anyone had one? There is one on eBay (item number 220804866959) that's quite close to my mum so if the hamster heaven doesn't come through... And it even comes with a wodent wheel!! (I'm using that in the picture to show how big the cage is... Do you think it's worth getting? It does look quite good...

Any advise is welcome. Thanks everyone :D

Marchioro Jack 72 is a very good cage. There's a review on it somewhere in the cage reviews thread. Marchioro cages are good quality, albeit hard to find. The Jack kind has narrow bar spacing (1cm) so it's suitable for adult dwarves.

P.S.: Marchioro Rene was the cage I spent forever looking for and could not find in the U.S. It from Marchioro's rat range.

I think the "62", "72", "82" mean the length of these cages in centimeters, and most come in at least two of those varieties. Marchioro Tommy has very wide bar spacing and is a lot more easily available here.

Here are some photos of Jack 72:

I had spotted that on ebay and it looks fantastic :)
I think most syrians would be happy in it or bigger dwarfs (winterwhites, adult campbells)
Although I swear i've seen a robo housed in one before.

i used to house my syrian Ida in rene 72 which is the same as the jack 72 only a different colour.i think its a nice cage especially if you haven't got space for a 80x50 sized cage and it also flat packs.
