He looks as though he’s enjoying his new home, the wheel does look a little small but not so much so probably be ok for a while.

He had a tiny wheel that attached to a plastic platform but kept falling off.
This photo was taken after i had put sand, toilet paper strips, millet etc in and shows the wheel.

Their substrate was petshop own make woodchips without any bedding.
That particular brand of woodchips is very hard and coarse. It's truly awful.
I sometimes use woodchips in play areas of temporary foster cages but use a brand produced in a local wood mill which is so soft and doesn't have big stabby pieces.

He's running better in the wheel now and more in the centre. It's a Mousebro wheel but can't remember the size.

Fab. While eating my omelette roll (extra egg 
), i've located a Hamster Heaven with a Kaytee comfort wheel which is bigger than the MouseBro i think and bits for £20.
Off to collect when seller is back from her run.
I'll put the long low table up again with Otto's Alaska on it and the HH next to it for Toby and the playbin underneath it.
I'm off now to buy more of those luxury fat balls the garden birds are mad on and then hopefully collect the HH.
Looks like another busy couple of days.

It's those from home bargains they go potty for.

Got the cage which is the Metro and in very good and clean condition with a comfort wheel. In fact, she had two Metros plus wheel both in equally good condition. I bought both and have a spare now. Too good a bargain to leave behind. I know that they are below recommended sizes nowadays but i think that many dwarfs can be happy in this cage if set up well and combined with regular out of cage time should they like it.
I don't think the Comfort wheel is bigger than the MouseBro and the MouseBro is a much better wheel (ball bearings) so i'll put it in the playground.

That was a good bargain, it is a good cage & most dwarf hams would be happy in there.

I get confused when you say the metro Do you mean the sky metro? The one that looks like the HH but without the penthouse? I think both that and the HH are called metro (and a few other of their cages) - the metro bit is usually the ones with tubes.

Yes, the Sky Metro. I forgot what it was called exactly. I always put end caps on and then they all look the same.

I know which one you mean now. Believe it or not there are smaller metro cages too! Any of their cages that have tubes have metro on the end.

I've moved Toby over tonight and stuck to the same set up as in the bin cage so it won't be too much of a change. Living area to the left and play area to the right.
It's not finished yet but too tired to do more tonight.

Another great cage set-up Beryl. I'm sure Toby will love it
