Default 2nd cage move - too much stress?

I currently have my syrian in a duna multy but have alot more space on the shelf so I would really like to get her a bigger cage.

I've pretty much decided on the zoozone 2 (was gonna get the maxi multy but they are like £90for practically the same thing!!) but....I wanted to know whether a second cage move would stress her out too much?

She moved about 4 months ago into the Multy, and now I wanted to move her into the zoozone - do you think it's all too much?

i think a 4-month gap should be fine. I moved a ham twice in the space of a couple weeks and she got sick, but i think 4-months will be ok.

i think cage moves in a short space of time isnt good for them because they consider there cage home but introduce them slowly into the new cage it should be fine ,fist few days for an hour then build it up to an overnight stay but at the end of it give them a treat to show that its good to be in a new cage this should work
