Transparent Hamster ball?

How about this one at Wilko? It's a 7-inch one. Would it be too big for my Chinese to move?

i had one of these for my chinese and she couldn't move in it that well but i think she was the runt of the litter so she is rather small. i think it all depends on the hamster

Hmm I think I would need a smaller one than the 7-inch, as Charlie is pretty small. He also only weighs 30g, so the 7-inch ball would probably weigh more than him lol!

I usually do buy the transparent one which seem to be fine with the syrians. But now i have a better quality blue one and they seem to be fine with that too Im getting the rat ball for xmas though in clear though

I usually use the clear ones, Gloria loved it so much she wouldn't come out when I tried. she knew the floor plan of the home and what would make loud noise if she crashed into it. She loved slamming into the recycling bin repeatedly I think the clear ball helped her find land marks with her limited vision to find her way around the house, she would even sit in front of the table her cage was on and sit and look upwards when she wanted to get out.

My dwarf hammies dont seem to care for clear or colored. They don't run around in either, just sit there looking bored. Sandy preferred clear

From my local pet shop (i dont think they have a website yet)but its the kind of the same one from Wilkinsons but obviously the rat version for £10

Found this one for dwarfs....

The Pet Express - Mini Playball 5"" - £2.81 - Small Animals - Toys And Exercise

They also have the ZZ1 for about £35

I think a 5" wheel would be good for robos and very small dwarf hamsters. I wouldn't give a 5" to a medium-large dwarf--I think a 7" would be much better.
