We buy the plastic boxes from the pound shop with the clip on lids and drill holes in the lid. They are about 1ft square and make lovely carry boxes.

I would use boxes if i had the diy skills lol - unfortunately i cannot even make a hole in the lid lmao

I LOVE these!!
The bottoms are also darker, which can be calming for the hamster, compared to the all clear ones

I use the ferplast carryers which you can buy from P@H, but get a medium one i think the small carriers are way to small and dont give the hammie much room!

I've got the medium one which has been used for transporting a variety of different sizes and breeds of hammy, also for baby rabbits. You can get a nice amount of bedding and substrate in there for travel and access in/out is nice and easy too
