Bad Cage Unboxing Review | Oxbow Enriched Life Hamster Habitat | Munchies Place
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ส.ค. 2019
- When it comes to Oxbow, they provide great care for Rabbits, Guinea Pigs and even Rats. But unfortunately we have issues with their care for Hamsters. Today i am reviewing their newly released Hamster cage that has been marketed towards both the big Syrian hamsters and the smallest of dwarf hamsters. You'll see it unboxed, put together while being provided critical information on what's appropriate and what isn't and why this cage is frowned upon in the Hamster Community. Today's featured hamster is none other than Star, our longest foster hamster at our Rescue.
Why not consider fostering yourself? Get involved and see for yourself what it means to be a Foster Home.

We really appreciate all the feedback we’re received so far and look forward to learning more in the days ahead. This feedback is very helpful as we look at opportunities to add meaningful innovation designed to improve the quality of life for hamsters everywhere!
That’s great to hear! I hope your team is true to their word and improves on the products. Thats all we ask
Hey can you get grids for guinea pigs C&C cages in pet stores bc guinea pig cages are too small
By the way, your hay quality is amazing
Oxbow Animal Health you should make a cage for a rabbit that’s bigger then 8 ft rabbit owners would really really appreciate that
I remember filling in a survey a while back, and I know a lot of people in the hamster community did, did this cage not get made from those results?
Oxbow Animal Health thank you for seeing this and considering improvement rather than denying their veiws
I love how in America everything is bigger except the cages
Amelia Dainz apparently the compassion for animals here is smaller too
Sorry lol I didnt want to call you that username! But what I was going to say, a lot of people even in America are very loving to their animals. But yeah, some people dont have much compassion for their animals.
Tiny cages in america... still bigger than here. Which is absolutely terrible, I know.
Hahaha I love that 😂😂
A ferret cage is the perfect size for my rat...
For 1 RAT...
Bro I’m straight up about to start my own hamster cage company
I've been thinking this for a while now. I have so many good cage ideas lmao
same. lol
I wish you luck. I would really like to see more company that would prioritize the pet and their care before profit. Hamsters deserve so much better than just being a throw-away pet.
If you ever do, reply to me and tell me the name! I’m assuming this comment was a joke but still 😂
@@emilyelizabeth7062 Same
Someone needs to make an edit 'munchie struggling with cages targeted towards children for 5 Mins' ❤️♥️♥️
I have to admit, that's one of my favorite parts of these videos. Struggling with the cage assembly and also angrily reading packaging/instructions
I need a friend to make a series with me "building hamster cages: Who will win?". Make it into a competition to see who can perfectly build a crappy hamster cage due to how difficult they bloody are! 😂😂😂
@@MunchiesPlace Even better if you recruit a child for this project and see who succeeds first, adult or kid. :)
I am not sure children would fit!
@@shiruba2004 ahaha
I work at a pet store and we get these in (not by my choice..) and for some really strange reason, they ship the item to us with the box sealed INSIDE OUT?! So I usually take it apart and flip the box the right way so customers can see it + we can now scan it. That's probably why it was the way it was with the tape and looking touched. Just an FYI :)
Thank you for letting me know. This would explain somethings.
I don't know if you'll ever read this comment, but if you do I just wanted to say THANK YOU from the deepest part of my heart.
I got a male Dwarf campbell's hamster on march of this year. He's all white, his name is Sidney and he is the cutest thing ever, I love him with all my heart. Sadly here in latin america cages are even worse than the critter trails, when I went to the pet store they only had this horrible wired cages, and I mean, even the floor was wire, there was litteraly no room for even an inch of bedding. I got the biggest one (I never liked the wires, but I though it was the best because it was considerably bigger than the rest of cages). Of course I could see that the wire was horrible so I tried to look for something better. Lucky me, a month later I finally found something I tough was better, a cage very similar to a critter trail. I believed it was better because the floor seemed more confortable. My hamster only lasted a couple of weeks on that cage because while I was doing some research for his diet I found your channel. All of my fellow spanish pet youtubers told me that 200 square inches was a right size for a hamster. And I was really lucky to found your channel that gave me a whole new idea of how hamster care needs to be.
I got a new cage (It's basically the same cage that Vanilla Ham Ham shows on her diy hamster cage video). And of course filling the cage was the other big problem because literally the only hamster accessory you can get here is a ceramic hide (of course it was not enough to make the cage crowded) so I made a lot of wood diy toys, hides and plataforms.
Sadly here in latin america being a good pet owner is really hard (at least for hamsters) because in most cities you would never be able to get proper accessories or enclousures, not even on the internet, I already tried. And I really hope this changes, people in here already has good intentions for their pets, the only thing that we need is that more appropiate accessories arrive to us (cages, wheels, hides, bedding, toys, munchies, etc) because right now they're imposible to find, I needed to diy almost everything. I love my country but we urgently need to improve our pet care.
I'm doing my best to improve my hamie's life as good as I can, diet, toys, sand baths and good care in general.
I really love him and I wanted to thank you a lot for doing this job, if it wasn't for you I could never know that I was doing wrong. You changed my beloved hamster's life. Now I always speak to my friends and tell them how to take good care of a hamster, so more people can be well informed.
It was a long comment, but I wanted to share my story and tell you how thankfull I'm (if you ever read this) (Sorry if there was some mistakes, my english is not perfect).
Hugs and love
I loved it when she went " MUNCHIE IS SUPPOSED TO TOUCH THIS FIRST" she's so amazing ♥️♥️♥️
I heard that when I read this hehe

I used to have the katee two-tiered cage for my past two hamsters, and because of your videos and Victoria Rachel‘s videos I am now getting a preview 528 cage for my new hamster that I’m getting next week and I’m so excited that my hamster will have a better life thanks to you.
Good Job!! Make this blue if you love Victoria Rachel and Munchies Place

wholesome
Same. I had my hammie for 3 days & I just received the prevue 528 from amazon. Thanks to there videos!!
that's awesome! it makes me so happy to see someone own up to their mistakes and change them for the sake of their hammy!
Raechel*
Initially I thought "well not okay but it still looks bigger than most cages reviewed here".... Sees it with hamster inside "Yikes!". It looks bigger than it is.
Yeah, I usually try to scale pictures of cages by looking at the wheel, but when the wheel is ant sized it doesn't work.
Yeah it initially looks much bigger in than what it actually was
Hamsters are huge
@@digittheultimatealtaccount8943 nah they're not
@@kittenmimi5326 maybe I'm just small lol
who ever makes these cages should be put into a very tiny room, and maybe then they would understand how small animals feel.
Jerry Dalzell hope they are claustrophobic.. i mean i know i am to a point.. so yeah
Oxbow has viewed this video and replied to it now! I think they may actually be taking notes. Hopefully 🤞
Tianna Larson oxbow are normally good at listening to what people think of their cages so fingers crossed!
Tell that to most snake breeders :)
Its funny how college kids are doing it rightnow
A kid in my class got a hamster this weekend. Judging by the way he described the hamster's actions, it gave me an idea of the cage and the hamster, which sounded stressed.
I wanted to cry. It makes me so bad that people still keep purchasing the hamsters and not doing their research. I'll make my own handbooks and put them in PetSmart racks and on cages and stuff. I'll see if I can try to inform this kid. Although almost every kid in my grade is ignorant. It really bothers me.
Same except for me it was a girl in my church class I told her she could get a large 40 gallon tank or a diy bin cage and she was like "yeah...i was gonna do that." But it was very obivious she wasnt
FerretUnicorn8 :3 oh i hate people like that.. 😫
I got my first hamster last week. She's a 10 month old winter white called Mitsuha. She lived in a 260 sq in cage in her previous home, with barely any bedding, (which might've actually been a good thing in this case, since it was really dusty pine shavings) and only a wheel and a hide. On top of that, all of her things were sticky?? Now she has a 835 sq in natural setup with lots of bedding and things to explore, and my brother even made her a multi chamber hide as a surprise 🤗
Booklet: avoid feeding seeds to your hamster
Also booklet: feed your hamster sunflower seeds as a treat
My friend had a mouse and it was in the tiny cottage critter trail and when I told him that they were to small he went out and bought a bin cage it warms my heart that he threw that out and got a new cage when I told him that because sometimes people really care about their animals they just don’t know how to take care of them
That's awesome!!
I really appreciate how you don’t hesitate to call out them on how small or terrible things in the cage/the cage itself is 😊
New here subscribed today. It makes me sad 😥 as a kid I didn't know why my hamster was so defensive, but after watching your vids on proper environments I realized that it was his enclosure stressing him out... Now I know if I get another hamster in the feature, but I failed my childhood hamster for not doing proper research...
Welcome to the Munchkin family. ♥️
Well i’ve not had many hamsters myself (mainly because i’m more of a rat person.. now we’ve always had our rats in big cages right now our rats are in a bird cage with tons of hammocks even though they have ripped most of the pet store bought ones apart because they are silly little cuties we have some rope wich mostly are actually dog toys and some of the chew one with a bell one of those edible boredom breakers and we also have a rope one that they can climb onto and naturally hides aplenty) if i were to ever get a hammy i would also do everything to make them happy and have em live the best life they can possibly live
Not your fault you where a child at least if you get a hamster now you’ll have time to research and also make sure the hamster has a suitable an environment/cage
I just got two Gerbils today, Chip and Dale, and even though you are more about hamsters. I still love your videos. You have all correct information and you help a lot of people❤️
Thank you for being Awsome!
I got two gerbils too a little while ago, and wish i had found her channel earlier so i wouldve gotten them a bigger cage from the start instead of having to upgrade. Great that you already know what to do for them tho!
I live in the UK and the pet store I go to doesn’t actually sell anything like Kaytee critter Trail! The smallest one I’ve seen looks around 420 square inches.
Hamster Girl Gacha nice
Same in my country. But the cages they sell are just aroun 4×3inches and hamsters are supposed to stay there for the rest of their lives. They also have a hamsterwheel in there and it's really small.
Yea i have a pets corner near my house they do like 400 si
Unfortunately my closest pet store is pets at home (I’m in the uk too) and honestly I walked back out because they’ve got such tiny cages in. Got the ferplast ‘rabbit’ cage on Amazon. £100 but worth it. 99x51.5x36 so about 760 sq inches. Also got my 20cm wheel on amazon. Was cheaper and actually suitable compared to the overpriced 12cm wheels I saw in store. UK pet stores are unfortunately just as guilty.
@@pixienyx4306 Pets at home is quite guilty of selling smaller cages, HOWEVER, I recently got my hammy from one last month, and they didnt have many smaller cages on display in the store, most were of the 420sq inch minimum. The staff member who was helping me with my hammy also made sure to ask what cage I already had at home to check whether I understood the minimum recommendation.
Hey munchie I don’t know why they don’t make bigger cages
Starie Drawz I know that thanks for the information Incase I didn’t but that’s correct honestly people should just get a bin cage mine was 9:98 for 614 sq inches
Matthew B that’s amazing! I got my cage for 80 dollars an it’s a 628 sq inches
Alexia King that’s amazing I mean I made a transformation from a critter trail to that cage I mean people that watch me on TH-cam know that
Wooooo! New upload! I'm never been one to comment much but just wanted to say thank you for always sharing such valuable and caring information to us all. Wish you all the best in your endeavors!
Me: has never owned a hamster and probably never will
Also me: *hamster video time*
hey i love your videos! because of you i got my hamster a 200 quart bin cage and not a critter trail :) #whyisthebridgethere
50 gallons?
I'm going to buy a small cage then clean out my closet get a bin and my hamster will have a bigger home but i am just a kid 12 so it might take a while but i will make it
imarandomperson you’re hamster doesn’t really have “a while”. just go in your closet get a bin and put the hamster in there now. why must it take a while?
@@bobfish7797 cuz i have to deal with school
And i still have clothes
I'd be worried about the hamster getting bumblefoot from that bridge
It's not like a wheel where they're constantly running on it at high speeds but....it's so not needed for a small cage like this nor the design of it is needed.
Munchie's Place well i’d still put something over it just for good measure.. despite me not really accepting the cage at all..
I love how honest you are munchie 💜 You’re a beautiful person. I appreciate your videos and how you educate viewers.
This vid was great!
Now my hamster has the right size of cage and is far happier
It would be so awesome if someone made this into a way bigger cage with say like 800+ sq ft, but made it with wood and glass! Like, id pay for a bigger and glass/wood version of this
Bought this cage for my hamster, before seeing this video, so still being sold in stores 9 months later. My Syrian hamster hates it. She's bored, can't use the wheel and doesn't have room to burrow. New, bigger cage arrives on Tuesday and I can't wait to set it up for her.
My hamsters where recently upgraded from a 10 gallon.... I KNOW I AM A HORRIBLE OWNER... to a 600sq inch each, my russian dwarf Moka loves the extra space and I recently rescued Latte from a 12 by 12 inch cage, she loves the space and adores to run all over her enclosure
Erika Cuevas ur not a horrible owner at least u fixed ur mistake good job for that
Thanks for switching, your a good owner, especially since most people don’t change their cage.
You changed the cage that’s better than most people would
Such a well put together review. I love what you do.
I was thinking about getting a hamster and you have helped so much by telling me all this information! Love your channel btw!
The sad part about educating the public about Hamster care is that some people choose not to listen. I can’t tell you how many people I’ve informed about big cages ect and they still end up picking the critter carrier. If bigger companies like Ox actually listened and made proper cages, maybe more people will listen.
Sorry for my rant, but beautiful box opening and information!
I wouldn't even put a stuffed animal in there because that would just be cruel
potato queen i wouldn’t put a potplant in there
@@litchtheshinigami8936 lol
When my wheatgrasses does not behave I imprison them in that cage
Only an ant would be able to have space to roam in this cage
Yep...
Could you imagine having to take that apart and then put it back together every time you had to clean the cage. Ugh no thanks.
Lol large glass tanks are soooo much better to clean
I thought just getting Star out of it was more trouble than what it's worth. It's a big issue when you cannot safely reach your hamster if it's in distress or when you go to clean it's habitat. You're more than likely going to scare the living s*** out of it.
Thank you for making the cage reviews . I have Stormy in the Oxbow bedding right now. I bought the two toned natural color at my local store. She seems to love it ! She even burrows through it . She did not burrow in any previous bedding .
Hey munchie! For all my previous hamsters I have owned tiny critter trails because I thought they were fine. Thanks to you and Victoria Rachael I have a new preview 528 coming tomorrow! Thanks SO much for all your videos!
I saw the cages box in the background of your last video. So I knew this one was coming!
These videos really help me ive been doing so much research and your videos helped me understand that they need a proper cage we are making a bin cage and have so much new info so my hamsters are so happy :)
You have convinced me to get an 11 inch wheel now as I only have a 8 inch for my 10 month old Syrian girl 😊
Your now my favorite youtube, I have mice and hamsters you taught me so much about hamsters!
Thank you for taking a stand munchie ❤️❤️❤️
when i got my hamsters i knew nothing about them. i had a Kaytee plastic cage with two restless roborovskis that always fought and didn't get along. Thanks to you i've learned so much about hamsters and now my hammys are seperated and in there own DIY bin cages and have the proper care and diet. so thank you sooooo much.
You should do a series where you review good cages so some people know what some of the good cages look like
There is very few and far between cages that're good and most are outside of the US so imported fees are applied heavily. The lixit Haven cage and kaytee supertrail are expensive cages that i don't personally want to use due to their size as i don't like using them for Syrians. All of my rescues are in 600+ sq inches if they're adult syrians. I did make an unboxing and cleaning video of the prevue 528 cage so that's the only one i have for now as well as i don't have any use for a ikea detolf as i am using a rack system for my rescue (encase you're confused i am referring to my rescue i run). So if you're looking for appropriate enclosures, there are two videos i usually send people to. Victoria Raechel and Vanilla Ham Ham as they have dedicated good cage videos. I'm reviewing negative cages due to how many beginner pet owners use amazon/petco/petsmart reviews to determine which cage they'll buy. Due to how many bad enclosures there are online and how many positive reviews you see of those bad cages and how cheap these cages are to purchase, that's why you'll see more bad enclosures being reviewed than good. Cause if i ever did make the kaytee super crittertrail review, i'd most likely still return the enclosure as i do not wish to use it when i have my prevue enclosures. Thank you for understanding. :)
Hey munchie!! I love that you care so much about our little animals. I have a hamster in a 20 gallon tank, but once I can get everything settled, then I can upgrade my curious hamster 🐹.
I have a 610 sq inch bin cage and a 540sq inch aquarium and it's because of you and another youtuber thank you so much
Came back from school so happy to see this once I opened TH-cam
Love the video! Love you munchie
I just got my first ever Syrian ❤️ she’s white and her names skai.
Just call them hamsters
@@poop143 may I ask why you care?
Kiwi The best bunny in the world and cutest theres so many different types of hamsters I’d prefer to give more detail on the kind of hamster she is.
@@void-xt8pw sure
TheDaffiestDandelion my dad had brought her to my house with a critter trail I told him I wasn’t gonna use it and that it’s too small, he said it was perfect cause she’s small, so I threw it away. Lmfaoo never put her in it once she went bright in a bin
I love your videos munchie!!
Yessssss!!! Thanks for a new upload!
Thx I love your videos and it helps and educating me I am going to get a hamster soon I am going to make sure it has a big cage and is going to live its best life and it won’t hurt me to spend a couple more dollars 💵 to make sure I have a healthy loving Hamster 🐹 thx ❤️
Some companies are just interested in money🙄🙄🙄they dont give a s#!t about hamster health and that is just horrendous
Oxbow is at least making a stride to learn in the survey they posted.
Munchie's Place i hope they undertstand that a hamster needs a spacious and good quality cage
I bingewatched VanillaHamHam and Munchie's Bad Cage review of the Tiny Tales Rocket Ship popped up in my recommendations and I watched it, got hooked on the channel and now I'm in a comment section while Munchie's voice causes my hamster to run on her wheel while washing her face
I’m so glad Munchie is back!!! I understand if she doesn’t/can’t upload consistently but I’m just glad she’s back!!! Love you munchie and I can’t wait to adopt my hammy😊🎉❤️
I usually upload once a week. So i did do last weeks video if you haven't seen on the Duo hamster rescue. But yes im back from my move.
Munchie's Place I did see! I just meant I’m glad you’re done with the move and I dunno just everything is back to normal
I feel oxbow released this cage to purposely have people mad then seem like the good company by asking for help. And I oop. Thats the tea
We can only assume they'd like to know how to better improve. We can't know their true motives without the facts. But I am disappointed however as i feel they never properly tested out their cage or asked places like the Pipsqueakery or the California Hamster Association to come test out their new cage and give feedback. So in a way this was done poorly by them and they should follow Kaytee's example and reach out to people next time before releasing a product for sale. So we will see this cage being featured on the market this year and it will most likely remain till their sales deplete or they decide to pull it down for another one.
I had two hammies when I was like 13, and watching your videos has made me feel so bad for them, their cages were pretty small for what they actually need, definitely want more in the future because I adooore them so so much, and I will definitely learn from your channel how to better care for them
Your videos are so helpful! I got my hamster a prevue 528 instead of a critter trail or other unacceptable “hamster habitat”.
I honestly get so upset when I notice somebody using a cage similar to a critter trail or just small cages in general☹️, so upsetting knowing little hammies are getting mistreated
Because of u and Victoria Rachel I got my dwarf hamster a 110qt bin cage instead of a 10 gallon tank ❤😁
I went into a Petco once, and they had like fifteen mice living in one small glass enclosure. All the rodents were living in tiny spaces. It was heart-breaking. I’m glad you’re spreading the word :)
Oh munchie by the way kaytee now has you on there recommend subscriptions on there channel im so happy! Kudos to you!!
Oh no....I'm about to shit all over them here in an upcoming video. Nor did we ever make contact with the company. So idk where this sudden love is coming from.
Semi unrelated
I used to use the small ferplast cage
I was uninformed, it was my first cage and it met the 12*12*12 that companies advertise
Then after watching TH-cam videos I found out that the wheel and cage were both too small
So for Christmas (about 2 months later) I asked for the Prevue 528 and the 6.5 silent spinner
I have two Russian Dwarfs and they are on the smaller side, so I have the 6.5 inch wheel
I noticed that in the ferplast cage, my hamsters had started bar chewing and the less docile one had been ‘kicked out’ he was sleeping in the corner of the wire level where there was no bedding
Once I upgrade the cage they both seemed happier
The more docile one chooses to sleep in a hut I have on the platform (where he keeps all his food) and the less docile one burrows like no tomorrow
After I had found out that my cage was unsuitable, I changed it as quickly as I could
It’s fine to make a mistake, as long as you fix it when you find out it’s wrong
*sorry I rambled
**Also the more docile one is Noodle and the less docile one is Reginald
I love these reviews their so informative and very educational!! Thank you for sharing Munchie!! Keep up the great and amazing work you do!!! Truly are my inspiration!!!
#WhyIsTheBridgeTheir
P.S. Star is so much bigger then the wheel!! Definitely using baby Serian Hamsters cause no way possible they used a adult like you did and claim that it's suitable for them, obviously it's not as we seen in this video!!
I just got my hamster todayyy!!! I have her in the pets at home grey house XL and she is a Russian Dwarf hamster! She is so cute!!!😍
Before buying my hamster I almost made the mistake of buying this cage. Luckily I watched your video before heading to Petsmart, instead of buying this I bought I giant bin from the Home Depot. My hamster loves his bin cage. The cage has a hideout, a sand bath, and a ton of toys
This is the cage my hamster pickle was in when we first got him. He is now in a bin cage. Seeing this really made my heart drop and I feel so awful for my baby. So glad I’ve improved his cage but it sucks how company’s sell cages like that. :/
I'm so,so glad we have bigger cages here in the UK! I really want a hamster but although my brother had a hamster when we were kids, I would love one myself so looking at videos etc on cages, hamster care etc : )
I finally found your review of this cage! Lol
I commented in another video asking what you thought about this cage. Idk why it didn't come up in my feed last time though :-/ but everything you said, was basically what i thought as well. I adopted my hamster Izzy and she came with a bin cage. She came from a very loving home, where the girl had lots of hamster knowledge.. She even taught me some new stuff! 😆. Anyway, after that i never felt the same about hamster cages. Izzy has since past, as she was over 3. But she was the most loving, beautiful winter white ❤. She lived a great life. I enjoy your videos even though i no longer have a hamster. I have a bunny currently. Anyway i know this is an old video, but i didn't know about your channel before or this review. I still appreciate it though. In the future i will probably adopt another hammy🤗
I love the fact that any of these reviews is not making fun and degrading the companies and cages, you are listing honest issues with them and look from a personal opinion but also from a it's for the critter opinion too not just "I hate this brand so of course it's bad" like I have seen some reviews be.
You might be able to use that wheel as a food bowl 🥴
Sabrina Wang no way my hamsters food bowl is 6 inches wide
@@Idk-iu4lw whats the Point of such a huge bowl?
Luckily, even though this cage is still not suitable- It means a lot that these companies are hearing us out! And they are at least trying to make larger cages. One step at a time- but someday they will get it right :)
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE THE SURVEY VIDEO thank GOD
You're welcome. I also like spacing them out but i'm running out of videos right now as my schedule has been tight. So ty for waiting.
@@MunchiesPlace I'd wait weeks to watch more cage unboxings!! I really love your dedication to educating the public and have further increased my knowledge on small animals as well :D PLEASE keep doing what you're doing! It is surely appreciated
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO YES SIS. POP OFFF !!!
I don't understand why they ask us for advice on what we'd like them to improve if they just ignore us
They made the cage first before the survey, it's likely they were not thinking of getting testers or rescues/hamster people to try them out first before they begin production. But the survey is probably here because they are going to improve in the future. Just unfortunately not right now.
@@MunchiesPlace thanks for letting me know. Hopefully their care improves
@@MunchiesPlace are they even gonna care enough to change it tho
When you first started setting it up I thought....hhmmm that's a nice cage...
Then fully set up I thought, that's a good size...
Then when you put your hamster in I was completely shocked.
How can these manufacturers think this is ok for a living animal to live comfortably in .
I wouldn't even put my 2 small mice in this.
Great job at demonstrating the set up and finished product.
The size is so deceiving on the box...
Keep up the great work in educating everyone ❤️❤️❤️
THAT BRIDGEEEE
THISS SCREAMMMMM ! 🤣🤣🤣
Lol the ferplast cage she said was for hamsters from United kingdom Is actually marketed for guineapigs and rabbits (you can't get it in pet shops, only online. I live in the UK btw). It's unsuitable for rabbits and guineapigs but brilliant for hamsters, I have it and its huge
It's better then all the other pet stores cages I seen before 😂
If I ever get rich af, the first thing I’m doing is importing a bunch of acrylic European cages for munchie 😭
Star is bigger than the wheel in DIAMETER! THE DIAMETER!!!
I should not have watched this with headphones on 😂 that was noisey. I do love these cage reviews though x
I made one part extra noisy for comical relief, but yeah headphone users beware. XD
Ooh I wish I could upload a photo of my Ferplast. My boy has bridges, a multichambered trixie hide, a carrot hide, a sand bath, platforms and a 28cm wheel, which fits nicely into the end of the cage, with loads of bedding (8ish inches). The cage cost about £100, but you can get bins the same size for £15-£20. It’s so easy to set up correctly, and it doesn’t have to be expensive, I found a 28cm plastic silent wheel for £7, and it’s brilliant! His wooden wheel was £21, but it just goes to show that providing what hams need is absolutely doable and is not going to bankrupt anyone.
I just wanted to let you know that..💗
You are beautiful😊💁👱
You are kind😊🍭🍓
You are caring😊💗
And funny😊❤️😂
Have a great year! 😊😘👍💗

This looks wayyy smaller than I thought. Thanks for the review! I was considering buying this cage but I will not.
I love victors Rachel!!❤️
Certain formulas form Oxbow are some of the best foods on the market! WHY WOULDN’T THEY MAKE THE SAME EFFORTS FOR HAMSTERS??
Because they see hamsters and gerbils as throw away pets
I remember the day I bought a second cage for my sirian hamster (i was a kid back then, but tried to give him the biggest place to be arround) and it came with a bottle. It dripped so much it was flooding the cage,we had to seal the hone after taking it away
I love them hammys
Do you leave written notes and care information in the boxes of the cages you review and return? I would.
i lovd you so much your chanel is the best
When I took my guinea pig's on a trip I used the old hamster cage (sadly it was a critter one) as a hidie.
They were great as a hidie place in a big cage, but I will never make that mistake again of having a small cage.
Any chance it could have been opened by customs when it was coming through?
I know it's happened to some of my packages
You are right about that cage!
The cage may have been opened at the airport for security as I see airport written on the box????
Seeing these types of cages make me think of when I was little and thinking these cages were ok for my hamsters. Looking back I feel so bad for them
I've used the oxbow bedding and the texture was nice, but it was really really dusty, so I'm not gonna use it again
**walks in room**
**sees hamster running faster than usain bolt**
Uh maybe ill just sleep on the couch tonight
There's something about this cage that reminds me of something you would see in a laboratory, maybe it's the fact that it only provides bare necessities, the clean look of it, or the tunnel that just goes around in endless circles. There's something very disturbing about it and I don't know what
Cage reveiws are my fav
You have helped me soooo much in my care! The only question I have is, why don’t you ever talk about the detolf?
I run a rescue who uses shelving units to store enclosures. Ikea detolf is more like a personal cage due to the size of it. We also need to DIY a lid and it's unfortunately not adequate for the amount of space it takes up and will not fit on our shelving unit. Other channels like Erin's Animals and Victoria Rachel use them or have talked about them.
