This was something new I saw and decided to try it out. It has such a variety in this mix that can keep my hamster quite interested in this food. The main thing he didn't like is the barley. There's a few seeds and dried carrot, potato, and cabbage. There's more wheat, millet, milo, and corn than seeds. There are flaked peas and corn that I take out since I want to prevent diabetes. Near the bottom of the ingredients list a a number of fermented things that have scientific names. I think they help with digestion.

The food is said to help skin, cost, immune system, digestion, and vitality. I haven't really noticed much of a difference in my hamster since starting this food. Sadly he passed away before he got to finish this food so I can't say how long it last me. Overall I do recommend this seed mix!

A recommended hamster food! I decided to get it as my hamster's pellet food since it seems the most healthiest. Also the price is not bad.

The bag is 1 lbs and is resealable. There's not alot of food compare to the size of the bag, but it should last at least a month. The food itself is practically the same size and shape of cherrios cereal. It even has a cereal like smell at least to me it does. It is green like ground up yard work like green. I really like the ingredients used as well. First on the list is timothy meal and what follows is barley, oat groat, flax seed, canola meal, millet, wheat gluten, and added vitamins. Protein is about 15% and fat 4.5% which is not bad. Dwarf hamsters needs a bit more protein but that's easy to supplement. There is not artificial foods or sugary or overly fattening ingredients.

My hamster is not entirely thrilled to eat this but he does eat it. He doesn't eat it all though which is slightly worrisome, but not that much. The bag I got has a best by date of a year and a couple months in the future which is good. Even though my hamster doesn't like it that much it is still the healthiest so I will continue to feed him it. Keeping a hamster healthy is my number #1 priority and happiness will follow it. So I definitely would recommend this food!

I've heard good things about this so I bought this in my recent pet supply order. I prefer natural products for my hamster, but I figure my hamster needs a hideaway that I can actually wash.

One of the things that really put me off is the colors. As an adult the colors just looks ugly to me. I like that the panels are see through so I can peek at my hamster. There's plenty of air holes on the panels so I'm sure there's a decent airflow inside. My hamster hasn't played or slept in this playground as much as his Petco 2 story house. I'm sure this is because its not dark which my hamster likes. My hamster is not into ramps for some reason so the ramp has been completely ignored. So I don't use the ramp. The ramp can be attached to any of the panels since it has two stubs that fits in the air holes. He hasn't climbed on top like he does on the petco house unless I put a treat up there.

I really like that you can change it and customize it. Unfortunely you can't make levels or floors with it. I tried to make a duplicate of the petco house, but that's not possible. I can make it as tall as it is but there won't be a floor on the second level. The set came with two frame with a tube attachment. The crittertrail tubes do fit in them, but it does take some effort attaching it and detaching it. This makes me be able to use accessories for the standard cages in a bin cage. The cage didn't have the floor space for the accessories so I have to build up. At first I wasn't sure if my hamster will be able to climb up, but its worth a try. I added a straight tube and attached an ovo addon. Luckily I was able to make it stay up. The first night my hamster was able climb up and down it so it was a success. He has been using it more often probably because he's getting bored of the petco house. I wish I can add more accessories, but the puzzle set doesn't make a big enough base space to be able to support it.

After reading about this product, I have taken the advice of owners to build the frame first before putting the panels on. It has worked well! It does take a bit of time assembling it, but I think its a nice toy for both pet and children. So I recommend it!

This is a review of two Petco small animal products. Both or all or mostly wooden and chewable.

The 2 story house is perfect size for dwarf hamsters and the holes are about the same diameter as a toilet paper roll. Not sure if a syrian can fit. I didn't know there was a built in bowl and I've had that part upside for months. My hamster does like to sleep and climb on this house so that gives him great enjoyment. I tend to put timothy hay on the second floor although my hamster has peed in that floor a couple times. Its hasn't stunk because of it though. The extended part of the first floor is moveable and swings to make the house more compact if you put it away. The colors are alot dimmer in person than the picture on Petco's website. Its sturdy and a great product! However because my hamster pees on the house, it can make things gross. Unfortunately for natural products you can't clean them so you will have to throw them away. The majority of this house is made of this chipboard and cardboard mix to imitate wood. I believe the colored parts are wood.

The bendable bridge is a great alternative to half log cage accessories. Its made well as the bendable metal looks thick and none of it is stick out or showing for any curious animals. It is chewable and the wood is smooth and well sanded. It serves as a great hideaway and climbable cage toy.

Overall, these products are great and would highly recommend them!

This is a review of two Ware products for my dwarf hamster. What I like about these two are that its natural so its pet safe at the most. The small sizes are perfect for dwarf hamsters.

The small grass hut is edible and perfect size for any dwarf hamsters but only has room for one winter white or maybe two robos. Its definitely too small for a syrian hamster. My little guy does chew on the hut sometimes, but its not the type of grass that most small pets would eat entirely. My hamster does like to climb on top of the hut and jump off it. Sometimes he overturns it and would end up in different places in his cage. Its a very lightweight product and stiff so it doesn't deform.

The barbell chew is made of willow sticks and its an Ok chew. There is a bell in one of the balls, and since its easy to take apart the chew you can remove the bell if its too noisy. The great thing about the balls is that you can encourage your hamster to chew if you stick a treat or food inside. The bar od the stick of the chew does get chewed on but not much. Sometimes if you have a yogurt treat you can rub it on the stick to encourage your hamster to chew it, but mine just likes to lick if off. Its a not bad chew toy, and well worth trying it out.

Overall, I enjoy and would recommend Ware small pet products!

I was looking for treats for my hamster and saw that these yogies treats had alot of good reviews on Amazon and it was at a good price. It came in a little plastic white tub that is 3.5 oz. in size. It says its made with yogurt too as its part of the name I would assume. I was surprised to see how unhealthy this treat is when I looked at the ingredients list. Its basically candy so its not wonder animals love it. The It wasn't until later that I learned that winter white hamsters are diabetes prone species. So I had to stop giving the treat to him, but I did keep it as they work well to encourage chewing on chew toys.

The treat itself are drops and shaped exactly like chocolate chips you use to make chocolate chip cookies with. They are pink like strawberry candy pink and they smell sickeningly sweet too. They're kind of like chocolate since they melt a bit in my warm fingers like milk chocolate. There was a huge clump of the treat stuck together in the tub when I got it but it wasn't too hard to break apart with fingers and a utensil. Since my hamster is a dwarf I wouldn't give him the whole treat and would just cut off 1/3 of one. So the whole tub is alot of one hamster and I don't want to give it to him more than once a month. If your pet is not a diabetes prone species you can obviously feed your animal companion these treats. I really doubt that you're pet would dislike this treat but they are really fattening. Since my hamster is not much of a chewer I like to rub this treat on chew toys like wooden chew sticks alittle bit, and he would automatically go chewing and licking on it. I would not advise rubbing too much since I don't want to encourage him to eat the chew too. But its great to do to get your hamsters into using chew toys since they sometimes ignore them or don't know what they're for.

Overall these are OK. I would not recommend buying them as they are unhealthy and fattening, and because they have yogurt in them they do not have a long shelf life. Mine only has a year left till the Use By date. So I keep them in the fridge or freezer in hopes to make them last longer and to prevent clumping. I think this would be a good buy for someone who has more than one pet they can feed these too and also have many other treats to give them variety. I would not use this treat as a sole treat to your pets as its just not healthy and there are healthier treats out there. Treats are important to gain trust from your pets and give it to them daily or however suitable to the species. I just wouldn't advise giving the rodent animals this treat is for daily. They are good as special treats. It may help lure out new pets if other treats don't work well especially for timid or scared ones. Since its so sugary its irresistible.

Here's the ingredients list: Sugar, Partially Hydrogenated Vegtable oil (Palm Kernel and Palm), Whey Powder, Dextrose, Yogurt Powder (Cultured Whey Protein Concentrate, Cultured Skim Milk and Yogurt Culture), Soya Lecithin (an emulsifier), Natural and/or Artificial Flavor, Titanium Dioxide, Color Added (Red Lake #40). May contain trace amounts of peanuts.
Crude Protein (min) 1.5%, Crude Fat (min) 21..0%, Crude Fiber (max) 0.5%, Moisture (max) 3.0%

I needed tubes to connect my current cage for my hamster to its playpen and possibly another cage to add more space. It was hard to figure out what tubes were best for a winter white hamster as I rarely see any detailed dimensions or comparison information. There were 3 different brands of tubes available: habitrial ovo, crittertrial, and SAM tubes. The SAM tubes are actually pretty difficult to find, and the ovo tubes are too big or too small for my dwarf. But I really do like that they are clear rather than the colorful crittertrail ones. In the end I opt for the crittertrail tubes as they seem to fit my dwarf hamster the best.

I picked the 2nd kit as it has the most elbow tubes and more appropriate for what I'm after. The colors are just not attractive since I'm an adult and don't really see any value for having colors. The tubes are perfect size though. It is a tad smaller than the ovo tubes so I think these tubes will be too small for a syrian hamster. They have bigger ridges or ledges for the hamster to climb compare to ovo tubes. The ovo tubes have such small grip that I imagine the hamsters would have a bit of a hard time to learn to climb them. The ovo tubes don't seem to have holes in them either. The crittertrial tubes have sparse air holes so I advise having something like newspaper below the tubes in case your hamster pees in the tubes.

These tubes easily fits with ovo connecters and cages. The crittertrial connectors snap together easily but it is alittle hard to take apart. I hear some people use spoons, but I find pulling the ridges out to work out wonderfully. It can big alittle hard to see the ridges on the edge but once you find them pull the connector away and find the next ridge closest to the one you just pulled and you should find the tube to pop out easily after that. The connectors are slightly rubbery and they allow you to twist the tubes however you won't unlike the ovo connectors. However it does cause issues with the loop-d-loop addon. It makes it hard to keep that addon upright like the way its shown the on box. Its heavy and will twist at the elbox tube and fall to the floor especially when the hamster is inside. You can try to put the addon upside down too, but I just made the tubes go horizontal and had the addon sit on the box to keep it steady. It would work like the way it is pictured on the box if I had a cage with a tube opening on the top but I don't. It could work if I had more ovo connectors since those lock the tubes in place or if I used the T tube. But the ovo connectors are hard to take off of the crittertrail tubes. Please use gloves or a towel to protect your hands when trying to pry the locks off.

My hamster sometimes nap in them, and hangouts in the loop-d-loop addon. He even peed in the loop-d-loop but it wasn't hard to clean up since you can take the top off easily. My dwarf fits in the tube really nicely and he's able to climb vertically with ease and fold himself to turn around. These tubes might be too tight for a syrian and could risk getting them stuck so I would not recommend these tubes for adult syrians.

Other than the horrid colors, this kit is not too bad. It all came tightly stuffed in a box and surprisingly not cracked as I was fearing. The plastic is pretty sturdy and thick so I don't think they will break easily. Thankfully this kit had enough pieces to link my small cage to a bin to add more space for the little guy. Overall, I really like this kit!

Got these addons on amazon for a really good price and they look nice and fun. The den didn't have any instructions inside but I think the Mini Maze did. The den came with one lock connector while the mini maze came with two connectors and one elbow tube. These addons are great additions to cages and will be fun for your hamster.

It seems the den is super popular for being one of the cheapest addon. I find the mini maze to be a better buy. The den could be useful as a sleeping area or home to save space in the cage since you can attach it outside. Or as a toilet and it be easy to clean out every day. However I find the den to be small especially for a syrian. I don't think a syrian would be able to lay down without curling its self inside. Its better for smaller species of hamsters and not syrians. The white bottom part does slide off but you have to make sure its slide all the way in when you try to close the lid. Mine sometimes slides a bit when I open and close the lid. The air holes are only on the moveable lid part so it might not have the best air flow. If your hamster hangs out in the den often be sure to check and put appropriate amount of bedding for the weather. Especially during humid weather it may produce moisture and cause mold to form. Other than serving a purpose of a toilet or a bed, I find the den to be a bit boring. It doesn't do much as added space since the floor of it is the size of a snapple cap without any bedding. The den itself is roughly the size of a grapefruit. The transparent plastic has a light green color but its quite clear to see through. The bottom part is white and is like a bowl but the floor is not flat it just has a ridge in the middle.

The Mini Maze is much larger than the den and it comes with an elbow tube and a cardboard insert. I think this is much for fun as you hamster can climb the tube and into the larger end of the addon. They can chew on the cardboard and climb on top of it or lookout of the cardboard opening. There are X slits on the cardboard which I don't know what they are for, but I hear people put treats in them which is a nice idea. The cardboard has a strawberry field art which is cute. My hamster likes this addon more than the den. I don't put any bedding in it and its a great place for my hamster to cool down or just sit and groom himself. Like the den the air holes are only on the moveable lid part. The bottom part is white and the floor is flat on the big end while the other end just opens up on the bubottom for tubes to attach to. The top half is mostly clear plastic with a transparent blue lid which is not the clearest. Not the best to look through. You attach the top half with the green snap on button. The lid is opened by pushing the clear plastic button down to separate it from the lid and slide it to the right. The maze is rather simple to put in and out.

Overall these are not bad addons but I recommended getting the mini maze. They do fit into crittertrail connectors do you can connect them to crittertrail tubes and cages.

Having a winter white hamster, I need hamster food that doesn't have too much sugary ingredients as dwarf hamsters are prone to diabetes. Hazel was the most recommended seed mix since it has no sugar or cane molasses. It does have alot of corn and peas though, but they're easy to take out as they are whole and not in tiny pieces or part of the pellets. Almost all of the hamster food have sugar and have sugary ingredients like corn and peas. Other hamster food are also processed which is not healthy, and if the bag says its enriched or fortified with vitamins that's a dead giveaway that the food has been processed to a point that they have to add the vitamins they lost back into the food. Dwarf hamsters natural diet should mostly be of small seeds similar to birds, but there are no pet food that has such a diet unless you live in Europe. Hazel Hamster is not the greatest food, but people recommend it because it doesn't have sugar and other junk foods. It really doesn't provide a good diet by itself so, and you will end up having to throw away at least 1/3 of the bag. Many buy pellet food like Mazuri or Oxbow to compensate. I had to buy some hamster safe bird seed to add to Hazel since it doesn't have any small seeds like canary, millets, and grass seeds. Also the protein is much too little for dwarfs as they need about 22% so adding something like mealworms is recommended. The mix also includes alfalfa and timothy hay pellets, but hamsters are tend to ignore them so you would have to buy some timothy hay to replace the pellets. Hamsters will definitely eat the hay, but just in small amounts as its not a huge part of their diet like it is for rabbits or guinea pigs. Syrain hamsters have a slightly different diet and they can eat the corn and sugary foods and treats. Robo hamster can also eat sugary foods. So the common pet food you find is more appropriate for them.

My hamster was not thrilled when I changed his food to Hazel. I did slowly made the change so it won't upset his digestive system. He mostly ignored the new food except for the nuts. After about a week he ate most except for the dark pellets and the red disks. I try to make it easier for him by softening the food with water and even breaking them into pieces. It didn't help too much, but he slowly ate them as he had no other choice now. I do feel bad to have to force him to eat them as he had no choice, but it is good for him and I won't leave it in his bowl for more than 2 days before refilling it with a fresh scoop. I can't really tell what is what in the bag. I do take the whole corn, sunflower seeds, and the flaked pieces out and save them as treats instead. The sunflower seeds are tiny which is good. They give a appropriate amount in the bag unlike other brands where there's too many. After about 2 weeks my hamster has mostly eaten the food except he still doesn't eat too much of the darker pellets. I'm glad my hamster wasn't too terribly picky. He does pee on it and barely eats it. He loves the small seeds better. When I'm near the end of the bag, my little guy starts to eat less of the food even the nuts.

Overall, this food is not too bad and definitely recommend it if you have dwarf hamsters and don't have access to better seed mixes. It is pricey and your hamster may not like it but if give them patience, and their health would be well worth the money. You will most likely end up throwing away 1/3 of the food if you take out the corn and peas and if your hamster doesn't eat the black pellets. Please research on your hamster's species diet. You will have to add fresh food, protein, and small seeds to fulfill a proper hamster diet.

The last bedding I got was aspen and it was pretty dusty so it has been making my hamster sneezing too much. Since I heard this brand was dust free compare to aspen and carefresh that I went ahead and bought it. Its really compact and it true that a piece becomes 3 times as large so I barely take much from the bag to fill the cage up. My hamster has fun playing with it and sleepy in it. Its really soft compare to aspen and will probably keep him warm during the colder seasons. The bedding is white and not colored or have any added scents. May not be the most natural or interesting bedding in the world, but I do not care for appearance. I thought that it being white would make finding my hamster's pee spot easier but it hasn't. At least I don't have to worry much about seeing yellowed areas in the cage.

However it doesn't do well to control odor as aspen so I often have to spot clean the cage or clean the cage a bit more often. Mixing some aspen in with the bedding seems to help with the smell but it still makes my hamster sneeze so I can't put too much. I generally don't mind the animal smell, and I think its just a mix of his scent gland more than his urine I'm smelling. It does a much better job at keeping my hamster's burrows in tact unlike aspen. Although it is easy to have the tunnels collapse but I'm sure your hamster will be ok with making more in his cage. I hear having a mixed bedding of peat, hay, aspen, and paper bedding make great burrowing for hamsters.

Overall, I recommend this for being mostly dust free and its great to mix it with aspen. The odor should not be a problem if you clean the cage every week. Unless your cage is larger than 360 square inches you would have to clean the cage less often.

I bought this wheel because its one of the most common wheels used for hamsters. The 6.5" wheel is perfect for my winter white hamster, and I recommend not going any smaller. Smaller wheels are more appropriate for babies. Unfortunately this is the biggest size these wheel come in. I highly advise to not get this wheel for syrian hamsters because its just too small for them. They need a 8" wheel to run without arching their backs so its more comfortable for them.

The wheel that came with my cage had long open gaps which can be dangerous as it risks getting the hamster's feet caught and injure themselves. I think these gaps are openings for poop or other debris to escape as the hamster runs. Whats great about the silent spinner is that it has no gaps or holes for any little hamster feet to get stuck in. Also it can be on a stand or attached to the cage bars. The wheels also come in a variety of colors but they all mostly have yellow pin and an opaque white back part of the wheel. The outer half is the colored part which is semi-transparent.

There seems to be a consistency issue with these wheels though. Some wheels, like mine, doesn't rotate in a perfect circle. The wheel design concaves alittle so its not the flattest running surface. And the noise from the wheels seem to vary from how its made and how your hamster runs. Mine can run on the wheel quietly enough that I may sleep through it but he also can run where its loud and rattly. I tried oiling the pin but it didn't help with the noise this wheel makes. I feel I have to oil the thing too much to make it stop squeaking. The pin on the back is really hard for me to fasten the wheel to my cage. I can't fully turn it perpendicular to the bars so I often just leave it at 40 degree angle. Its secure enough. Taking the stand part on and off is not too difficult. The two bars are flexible so you have to pinch them in to get them in the holes. Having the wheel on a stand than attached to the bars seem to make it much more quieter, but I often fear my hamster will knock it down over night or chew on the stand. People advise putting the wheel stand in a corner of the change diagonally to avoid having the wheel banging on the walls. It has worked well for me. Also I hear that these wheels tend to go fast that it would make the hamster fly out especially when the hamster wants to stop. People advise using bedding to be stuffed underneath the wheel to slow it down. My hamster is not much of a runner so I never had this issue. It may take your hamster some time to learn how to run in the wheel without flying out. After having the wheel for over a month the white part and colored part began to loosen so it really made the wheel much louder that it made me get up at 3 in the morning to put replace the old wheel back on. I used tape to tighten the two parts together, but who knows how long that will last.

Despite its name, its a gamble to get a completely silent wheel. It is one of the more recommended wheels along with the saucer wheel, and wodent wheels. My hamster is not too fond of the silent spinner and much prefers to his older wheel which is bigger and doesn't have a concave design. But he still uses and I will keep his older wheel as a backup.

I bought this with my new hamster because I learned about it from a hamster youtuber. Didn't want to risk having a picky hamster so I bought this since its pellets and not a seed mix. Its pretty cheap for the 3 lb bag too. The bag is suppose to be resealable but its ripped open before I even opened the bag. Some people complain about this issue. This food also has a smell to it. It can be a bit strong. My hamster may find it boring but he eats the appropriate amount everyday.
After learning more about hamsters, I realized this food is not that great. The bag advertise that its really healthy for your pets and lists all the healthy things about it like omega-3s and being good for their teeth. But the word fortified means its processed to a point that the natural ingredients loses its nutritional properties that they have add supplements to make up for it. This is not healthy at all. I have a diabetes prone hamster and to have corn as the first ingredient is not a good for him. Corn and peas are very common ingredients in pet food, but they are high in sugar foods so they increase the risk of my hamster getting diabetes. It doesn't help that it also has cane sugar and molasses in it as well.
I decided to feed my hamster some millets and barley along with the pellet food, he goes for the millets and barley first despite it not being sugary. From the hamster lovers I've learned that Kaytee is not a good company for pet food. Although it is safe for your pets to eat it, its definitely not the most healthiest.

I bought this bedding for my new dwarf hamster and it was the only aspen bedding I could find at Petsmart. It was really cheap too. The bag is big enough for a month for a standard cage for a hamster. I wanted to get aspen because I like the look of wood shavings plus I hear it the best at odor control.
This product is not good. Its pretty compacted in the bag so when I go break the shaving off I can smell the dust. Its dusty and my hamster like the burrow and sleep under the bedding. But I am worried the dust will affect his respiratory system. The shavings are also hard and feels uncomfortable which I hear isn't good. There's also lots of bark bits in the bedding which I also hear isn't good. The only good part of it is that its unscented and it does control odor really well. Even after a week, the cage doesn't smell so bad. Plus the cost is really good compare to Carefresh.

Overall, I don't recommend this brand of aspen bedding. I hear Petco's brand is really good but its really far away from me so I may order it online if I don't get a chance to go there. Anyways, I won't be buying this bedding again.

Got this for my first hamster which is a winter white. It does appear to be cramped, but its really close to the size of a home printer length and width wise. Its actually a pretty good enough space for the little guy once I put him inside. It really doesn't have alot of room for huts or toys unless you want to remove the second level or take off the wheel. I had to lower the second level it to the 3rd or 4th bar from the bottom so the ladder isn't so steep. However my hamster doesn't like going up there too often, and tends to sleep the tight space behind the wheel. He does like to nap on the second level after running around since it cooler there. The little hiding spot on the second level can always be used as a toilet or bath sand area if your hamster doesn't use it as his nest.

My hamster also likes climbing on the bars like the monkeys bars from playgrounds which I wish he didn't. But the height of the cage isn't dangerous so he's fine if he does fall from the top. At least he doesn't chew on the bars. At least it keeps him entertained I suppose. I wish the bottom part of the cage was deeper as my hamster seems to just swim in the bedding than walking on top of it. Its not deep enough for him to completely burrow and hide himself in. So I have to put more bedding on an area or two for him to dig up.

I taped the long gaps on the wheel to protect my hamsters feet, and it has worked pretty well so far. He's not a chewer, but the tape will have to be replaced weekly. However the tape does leave so much residue on the wheel so I opt to cut out strips of cardboard to fit snugly on the gaps. My hamster doesn't pee too much on the wheel so it hasn't done much damage to the cardboard. It will have to be replaced. The wheel is big for the guy, but I doubt it will be an issue since he runs perfectly fine in it. Also be sure to oil the wheel before putting it on the axle because its impossible to take it apart afterwards. If anybody knows how to take it apart, let me know! I really like the wheel if it where for those gaps. I may have to replace it with a silent spinner sooner or later.

The water bottle is a bit leaky, but if angled right it won't leak as much or at all. Its a 2 fl oz ball water bottle which is a good size since hamsters don't drink too much. On the side has a printed measurement meter so you can keep track of how much your hamster is drinking. The windows are kind of hard to put on and take out. I already cracked one of the windows while trying to put it in after luring my hamster through it to play. These openings will fit with the other Habitrail and Cittertrail products as they are by the same company. There's only one opening at the top and its not a very big opening. This can make things a bit difficult. I can't take out the wheel to clean it through the opening and its not easy spot cleaning the cage or taking the hamster out. Taking the top white bar off and sliding one side of the bars off makes a huge opening that makes cleaning and observing you hamster alot easier. But it is a hassle to do all that sometimes.

This cage came mostly assembled, and it also came with a brief assembly instructions. Its not very detailed so it took a couple minutes to learn how to open the windows, and disassemble the cage. What I really like about the cage is how great it looks. The bars give great ventilation and view of the hamster. The clear plastic sides are so much more appealing than color plastic. Also its high enough to add a good amount of bedding and not worry about the hamster kicking bedding outside the cage. I think this cage is great for those who want to own a dwarf hamster on a budget. With the two tube openings, it opens up to endless add on possibilities to treat your hamster! The square inch of this cage is about half of the recommended minimum of 360 sq inches for one hamster. If you're looking for a cage that will do everything and not wanting any addons than this cage is not for you. I strongly advise you not to use this as a stand alone cage or else your hamster will eventually get bored and get territorial. Its perfect for starter hamster owners like myself. I bought this through Amazon for a great price and it seems to be a discontinued product from the habitrail brand since its not listed on their site. It is cheaper than buying a bin since you will have to buy everything else.
