Can she climb?

Do you think the spacing on this wooden bridge maybe too wide for a ham to walk across? Anyone else have something like this? Excuse the other items in the photo. Lol
Also, can hams climb ladders that are vertical? They seem to be able to climb bars, but are they able to climb things that are more up right than at an angle? The wooden pegs that come eith some wooden gym climbers, can they climb those?

What I do with bird ladders or bridges like that is go to Lowes home improvement
In the lumber section they have a small section of craft wood. I use the poplar it comes in 3",4", and 6" and 4' pieces. I have them cut it right there at the store the length of the ladder or bridge and hot glue the ladder to the wood. It fits perfect and keeps them and there feet from falling through.

I've had a few of those types of things and all my Syrians have loved them. I just attached them to the roof of the cage like a hammock, next to something so that they could climb on and off it easily. Most dived head first off them though lol

How big is the space between each bar? As long as the ham can easily fit through that gap (so they don't get stuck!), I'd give them to them

The space between the steps is 1.5 inches.
