YOU HAVE AMAZING HAMSTER CARE!!
ser pabili nmn ako ng ganyan na gawa na
Wow, that's genius.... usually people cut a hole in the side and connect tunnel which doesnt equal to floorspace. And sometimes bins in stores aint big enough. So this is amazing!!! You can connect however many bins for it to be as big as you want. Than you for this sir anazing tutorial
It's so beatiful and original. I don't think I could put it together myself tho 😂😂😂 I lack the materials and the skills.
Btw, much support from Brazil!
Thanks dani!!!
wow you are full of good ideas ,i enjoyed watching this video even thought i will never build one,but you have propably inspired other more practical people than me to give it a go.well done a good step by step instructional video again.
hey thanks! much appreciated!
Great idea to make the lid hinged so you don't always have to remove the entire thing!
This is amazing, and really helps me out. See, I want 6 mice but I can't find anything that's at least 1,200 square inches AND for pocket sized pets, (I know those big enclosures exist too but they probably cost a small fortune) so again, this totally helps me out. 😊
I have 3 mice that’s why I’m here
@@Unicornlala13 I've got 4!
@@gracieortega8611 That’s so cool! They are so sweet, aren’t they??
@@Unicornlala13 Yes they're so sweet 😊
When i go to sleep, i think maybe i can make the box connected to make longer cage for my hamster, and then i met your video hahaha. Thank you..
That's such a nice bin cage! I am very excited what it looks like when you put a hamster in there
Thank you so much ❤ this will be my project for the weekend
This is a really good video! I appreciate you taking the time to make such a detailed tutorial that's easy to follow. I've admired your cages long before I started my youtube channel and I even ended up building two double wide bin cages for my dwarf hamsters thanks to your tutorials. Thanks for sharing your ideas and showing us how to make nice looking bin cages! Keep up the great work you're doing here and congrats on getting over 10K subs! 👏👏👏
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for this! I've been wanting to make a larger terrarium for my ball python and was looking for ways to attach two plastic tubs together. This is perfect!
What else can i expect? HAHAHAHHA fascinating job ✊♥️
Grabing talento ang inyong kamay sir Godbless
Thank you so much for this kuya 😭
I was having difficult finding bigger cages for my hamsters. Every bin cages I see are very expensive!!! Thank you for sharing this tutorial 🥰😭
Im not a hamster lover or a keeper before but nung napanood ko to napabili ako. Hahaha. Ngayon may hamster room nako. Hahaha. Good job boss.
This is amazing! Thank you!
This is genius
incerdible work i admire you'r videos
YESS OMG THANK YOU!!!
I’d like some opinions. I have a project in mind for my local shelter. They have an older building and not many supplies and they keep their younger kittens in large dog carriers. They don’t adopt out their animals until they are fixed so the kittens have to stay there or be fostered until they’re at least two pounds. They don’t use the wire crates to keep the those kittens in because More wire means more chances for injury and also the solid sides of the carriers act as a sneeze guard for everyone. That’s all good reasoning and logic but the problem is that the carriers are cumbersome and large, but even though they are large, they do not provide much floor space for the kittens. So it’s a lot of pointless/useless space and weight. Also, those are expensive and the ones they have are very old and the doors are rusty (not safe) and the patches are broken so they have to Jerry rig most of them. So I’m trying to figure out a solution for them that’s cheap, easy to clean/sanitize/least chances of kitten injury/light weight/good use of space/enough floor space for the kittens/etc. I WAS looking at fish tanks but the only ones that would provide enough floor space (I’m wanting at least 20”x30”) are super expensive and you have to buy the lid separate. I stumbled across this bin cage idea today and I think this may be my solution as it checks ALL of my boxes! I’m thinking a clear 200 quart tote Would be a good size. Walmart has one for about $25 that’s 38”x20” (which is way more room than those carriers provide). I don’t want to put a door on the sides because they’re supposed to act as sneeze guards so the top is my only option. I’m thinking that two wire grid panels (like the kind the cube and chloroplast guinea pig cages are made out of) would be good in stead of using mesh. There’s a size that’s about 14”x14” with the grid being 9 squares by 9 squares which is plenty small enough for kittens. So I figure I can cut TWO square holes in the lid at 12”x12” each (that way the plastic would over lap the wire grid panels on the under side) and zip tie just one side of the panels to the lid, tight enough to not slid but loose enough to act as a hinge. So then all I would need is a way to easily but securely latch the panels to “close” them on the lid. Remember, this is for a shelter environment with lots of cleaning and stuff going on. What’s everyone’s opinions? Does this sound like a feasible plan for weaned kittens under 8 weeks old? They’re about the size of guinea pigs or less. And constructive criticism? Anyone use bin cages for kittens before? Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
That sounds freaking awesome. Easy cleanup and fast installation. My only concern is how flimsy the plastic might be. Other than that it seems like a solid plan!!! Please give us updates :D
Thanks :) I haven’t been able to try it yet. I mentioned the idea to the director at the shelter and he seemed to like the smaller rolling ferret cages for them better. I found one second hand and used one of those C and C grid panels to add a large middle shelf. The staff and director loved it so much that he order a new one off Amazon so we can have two! They’re much smaller than the typical three tier cat cages but it’s the same layout. The smaller size is better for those young kitten so they won’t get hurt as easily. I still want to try out the bin cage idea but it looks like I’m going to have to wait until I can *hopefully* move to a different apartment soon where the landlord will allow me to foster. I’ll get the supplies and make my own bin cages for the kittens and see how they work. Then I can take videos and pictures and show them to the director and have personal experiences with it to tell him about. But in the meantime, I’ve used those C and C grids to add large middle shelves to the seven larger three tier cat cages that they have and the cats and staff LOVE them. It’s amazing how one small change can make such a huge difference. I just zip tied four of those grids along the horizontal bar that’s in between the top and bottom doors. I just leave a gap from the edge of the shelf to the side of the cage that’s large enough for the cats to pass through. I like taking a floor mat or something else that’s soft but stiff that can cover that whole middle shelf and I wrap it in a sheet to keep it cleaner. Then I put a pillow or bed in a pillow case and put it on that shelf. I’ve posted images on my IG account adoptable.fur.babies if anyone wants to see them. You’re welcome to follow me, if I can eventually foster and use the bin cage idea then I’ll be posting updates on there :)
@@xradelox wow, that sounds fantastic! Imma check out your ig
@Kitten Mimi: Thanks! I actually finally got to move a few weeks ago and immediately got my first foster mom! I use that 200 quart bin that I mentioned as the nest and I keep a step on the outside so she can safely jump in and out. Those things really do have tons of room and the plastic is pretty durable if you don’t man handle it. Once this mom and her kittens are taken back to the shelter to be fixed and adopted then I’ll get some weaned kittens that don’t have a mom and try out the bin cage idea with them. I don’t know if this particular shelter will go for it at the actual shelter because they don’t really have a space to place them where they can easily access the top to reach in, but I really believe this will be a great option for foster parents who don’t have a lot of space and want a cage that’s easy to clean and sanitize.
Nicely done! Liked and subscribed!
Where’d you find the acrylic? This seems like an awesome cage! I was planning on connecting two 39” x 21” bins to make a cage with about 1,600 square inches.
we have it locally :D
I've seen people connect 2 storage boxes with duct tape I mean like on the outside I hope this helps xx
@@theHamsterGuy ask q lang po kung nag bebenta po kayo ng ganyan kalaki na bin cage?
I just Love this channel❤️❤️❤️❤️ good job dude🌼
wow! i love this idea! i’mthinking of doing this too but instead of putting it side by side as you did, i’d put them more i front of each other so they have more width :) do you think it would work just as well?
it could but you will be having a hard time reaching out for the stuffs inside the cage. since the orientation of this is side by side, is is a lot easier for me to arrange stuffs. You also have to consider ergonomics when making your cage, what would be more convenient for you. :)
Very cool!
Super galing 👍👍👍
Lupet talaga mag diy hehehe
salamats!
素晴らしいです！！
This is so good!!
I love this. 🤩🤩
Grabeh ka kuya sinagad mona tlga da best HAHAHAHAHA
:D
Good job body i love it,♥️
THANKS OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi hamster guy! What was the thickness of the acrylic panels used in this video? Can a thicker acrylic panel be used for this DIY cage?
2mm. yes
put some silicone on it and it can be used as turtle habitat?
I love this idea for my cats. By the way, what is acrylic base connector and where can i buy that?.. I'm planning to make a litter out of this coz its cheaper..but my question is this one will my cat pee never slips on the floor when I connect this 2 bins like this method?
it might slip. are you usingg this for cat liter?
@@theHamsterGuy yup, I am planning to .. What advice can you give me?
😮 Galing!!! 💖
how do i ensure stability in the middle of the cage? to make sure it does not bend or snap in the middle?
just make sure you put anything solid, acrylic or plastic cut out that has 20-30cm
Great job!! But what materials have you used?
Thanks
❤️❤️❤️‼️‼️‼️❤️💗
Thank you po
2mm po ba gamit nyong acrylic?
Tkuyou
Great videos, how much bedding do you put seems like it could be abit more?
You should have six inches of bedding at least
Babar Khan I know I was wondering if they put at least 6 inches since it looked less but might be more
Hi is there another way to connect the bins easier instead of acrylic, screws and bolts?
The best way I can find kills two birds with one stone. Hamsters need air (duh) so get mesh and attach it on the cage like this:
|--------------------------------------Length ---------------------------------|
|-----------1st cage----------------||--------------2nd cage------------|
______________________________________________________
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mesh > ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Try duct tape I've seen people do that x
@@xxwolfyjenxx8599 oh yea, duct tape on the outside... then the hamster etc cannot chew it. But I doubt you can carry that with the bedding still inside, without the container collapsing
Some glue?
But this bin cage doesn't look tall enough to fit a wheel in.
19:29 Is it called blind rivets because we can't actually see what you're doing? :D Excellent how to video none-the-less. Thanks so much!
:))
have you had any issues with your hamsters “declaning” with bins like this? i have 2 gerbils and i have 2 bins connected by a tube and i was told they may become territorial?
declanin?
@@theHamsterGuy sorry, “declanning”. gerbils live in groups called clans and declanning is when a clan splits apart. when they split it may cause fights
@@kayla3674 never had that issues with hamsters. When i do social hamsters, i only pair them in same gender.
Do you sell these?If you do...do you ship to US?
What kind of drill bit did you use? Plastic? (Sorry, I'm inexperienced with power tools)
1/8 drill bit for plastic and wood :D
tysm! now my parents will have no excuse to NOT upgrade the hamster :)
Hello...I want one made for me...I am not very good doing this kind of thing...I would quite happy to pay you and delivered to my place in the UK...please would you accept my request? Kind regards
Baka pwede bilhin yang extra cage mo hehehehee
How often do you need to clean a cage this size?
4-6 months
@@theHamsterGuy wow really! You must at least have to spot clean?
@@mattsanderson1403 yes spot clean is regularly done
I know I'm lazy but I was wondering if just zipties would work to connect the two bins??
they can easily disconnect
It would work for a while, but you would need to check them often. Hamsters are rodents and love to chew on stuff. Plus, most are escape artists. If they find a weak spot in their cage, they will work at it until they have a hole big enough to pass through. You would be surprised to know how little time that would take them.
Source: someone who did *not* have this happen to her leading to a free-roaming escapee hamster for a month. 😅
@@anyjen yeeee decided I want to get rid of the second cage and get just a dwarf hamster but idk what t ok do with it ovo
What are you using to secure the acrylic pieces? You say screws and bolts but won't they stick out?
It is screwed.
@@theHamsterGuy but how do they not stick out? Are they really short?
@@fluffyunicorn-love7933 they dont stick out.
What size screws do you use?
Where did u bought the materials?
