Hagen Zoo Zone 2 - Cage Review

[Faye]

http://www.feedem.co.uk/small-animals-4 ... 2-6099.htm

This is meant to be a guinea pig cage, but can be adapted to accomodate hamsters
Suitable for all hamster species as it is a large cage
Dimensions are: 39"x20"x14.5" (99cmx51cmx37cm)
Price: £40 - £60 new

This is how I initially had it when I first put my 2 dwarfs in it


Over time, I added more things - one great thing is that you can spend all your money on houses and accessories cos there is so much space! or is that a bad thing?!

I have now added a platform, made out of 2 medium and 2 small 'Play Sitx' - it is on metal supports...




Because I will soon be using this cage for a Syrian, and it now has a higher platform, I will mesh the bars - I have done this before with my mouse's Zoo Zone 2

bound with wire


covered with tape to protect my fingers


This can make the lid more stiff to open, so I'd be intrigued to see how other people have meshed their's

This is how my Mouse's Zoo Zone 2 was done up (it's a bit different now - more houses etc.)


Good Points

• very spacious
  platforms can be added, as there are some pre-drilled holes at each end
  high enough to fit a large wheel
  can be found cheaply second hand
  great for preventing bar chewing

Bad Points

• bars may need to be meshed to prevent escapes
  need to add loads of climbing toys, as there are no bars to climb
  hole for water bottle is high - need to add a step
  only 1 level, unless you make your own

I'd love to see other people's Zoo Zone 2s!
