Default Hamster ball for syrian, recommended ones?

There was a thread somewhere with an ebay link to a ball which was recommended as it clicked once or twice when locked so you were sure it was locked properly. Can't find that thread now but for anyone who uses hamster balls, are there any recommended ones?

cheers, Joe.

yeah they are really good. when i last brought one it had a slight crack in(i think it might have been because i was walking around the shop and i dropped it ) but i took it back and they were fine about it

I'd personally go bigger than the Wilkos one. You need a rat sized ball really so the hamster doesn't arch it's back.

Ditto. Think of it as a spherical wheel; a small ball will cause the same problems as a small wheel. I use this one, pricey but very sturdy, though not as transparent as it looks. If anyone knows of a colourless transparent one that's 11" or larger in the UK I'd really appreciate a heads up.
