Wodent Wheel... which size?

Hello folks,

I'm going to get a wodent wheel sent over from the States... wondered what size is best for a long haired syrian?

Here he is at 10 weeks, he seems to have grown a lot in the last couple of weeks but no sure how much bigger he'll get:

Junior is usually the best for Syrians

I always read that Junior is quite enough for them.

Yeah, I think the junior will be ok... The Senior looks like it'll take up a lot of room.

I did get him a 10 inch rat ball and was a bit worried that it might be too large but he runs around all over the place in it... the balls in Pets @ home, just looked too small for him.

Junior is fine, I have one for my LH syrian and she is huge!

And also the Senior wheel is too big for most hamster cages.

I'm building a wooden cage... Anyone know how easy it is to wall mount the wodent wheel?

Otherwise I'll just leave it on the stand.

I know some people have attached them to wire cages but not sure about wood, they are fine on the floor though and I personally think they look better and are more silent on the stands.

Yep; junior is perfect for a syrian

Well I guess keeping it on the stand gives you a bit more flexibility.

Yeah, I tried attaching mine to the wire top of my HH once to save space but it rattled so much that I took it down as they're totally silent on the floor of the cage.
