habbitrail and syrians

[fuzziebunbunz]

Are habbitrails ok to keep a syrian in? I really like the look of the space staion one. I've read in a few places some syrians will get stuck in them? What are the chances of this? THanks!

There far too small for a Syrins - I found out the hard way when I had to cut Bella out of a tube.

CS has a Crittertrail, which has the same size tubes of the habitrails- if you are really concerned, adn still want one with tubes- try a SAM module- the tubes are a little bigger- but hamsters are able to stretch out and slide through the tubes- and as far as them getting fat- they need plenty of exercise just like ppl!- wheels and time in the balls or car and planty of things inside to climb on. Don't feed too many nuts or seeds as these are very fattening.

Bella is not fat - she's a perfect show hamster that has won 4 BIS and numoures RBIS - she's the average size. (pets can be smaller if they have bad genetic traits)

I will look into the SAMS! Thanks so much!
