Default Future Robo 'Checklist'

I didn't want to hijack kiania's thread, so I've posted mine separately.

Sometime in the future I'd like to buy a single female Robo hamster. This is what I plan on buying for her.
  • IKEA Samla 45 litre bin (+ lid and clip locks)
  • 6.5" Silent Spinner
  • Trixie 'Thordis' Corner House
  • Small 'Playstix' (the bendable stick things)
  • A 'Flat-Bac' bottle and suction cups for attaching to the side of the bin
  • Food bowl
  • 6.5" flying saucer
  • P@H Woodlands tunnel
  • P@H Cube
  • P@H Climbing Frame
  • P@H Plastic Seesaw
  • Sandbath (just a food bowl with chinchilla sand, not dust)
  • Sputnik
= approx. £50

I'd feed her on Burgess Supahamster Dwarf Hamster Harvest, and treats would be oats, millet and occasional fresh fruit and/or veggies.

I'd go for a 6.5" silent spinner, but other than that that looks all ok.

All looks great flix but I wll echo what Katie has said about the wheel, robos do get quite big and some can reach the size of small russian dwarfs so a 6.5" spinner is the best option.
Also after experience with a 5" saucer I would go up to the next size in that too (I think its 6"?) Because they grown out of them really fast. None of my adult robos fit onto a 5" one safely anymore :/ Looking forward to seeing it all set up!

Thanks for the advice Katie and Erin.

Hoping to get my robo (probably to be called Rosie) early summer next year.
