94 Pcs DIY Hamster Tunnel and Playground Module, Tube House Platform Excercise for Mouse Hamster and Other Small Animals

Sorry for typos. :/If you like being creative and building things then Tubes are the thing for you. If you have a smaller rodent, these are also amazing. I have a dwarf/robo hamster. He is small enough to turn around in these tubes. They also have a good umber of air holes, so I feel comfortable with him spending a lot of time in them. They are very simple to put together. Take the 2 sides that belong together, make sure the tine pins will have a male going to female, align and hold together, then put a ring on. Repeat for other parts and snap together.It’s important to know which cages work with these tubes. Any cage from ferpast will connect. If you don’t want a ferplast cage, they do offer a DIY option that might be added to any cage.I’d like to say that if you have watched any youtubers about hamsters they will say only continuous floor spaces count for cage size. There have been no studies done on that, and it is an unfound claim. The claim that you need 450 sq in of floor space is also not definitively proven. There is only so much research that was funded on hamsters and efficient cage circumstances. If you have a smaller cage than 450 sq ft, and especially if your hamster climbs the bars or chews tube might help from my experience. I don’t remember how much he climbed before and after I introduced the tubes, but with 2 cages connected and a massive tube structure he never climbs on the cage bars. Bar climbing is the indicator which scientist mark down to show to level of stress a hamster is experiencing. I noticed a huge difference in comfort and activity from our hamster after adding tubes, I think he is clearly much happier even though it is not cage floor space.We have 3 packs of these tubes and cubes and he loves spending most of the day in them. He has burrowed himself a hole in the stuffing, but will spend most of the daylight hours in the clear tubes. I think it’s kind of weird but he seams to really love them. You also do not have to have 4 slips on each side of a cube. I like to have 2 on bottom, one on each side, and 2 on top, so each cube I would build has a total of 6 joining clips. This makes it easy to pop open a cube that is outside the tube and leave a little treat for him or to grab out the stuffing from it if it’s looking dirty with out much fuss.As indicated above, we have 3 sets of these, and really I would like more, but at 35$ it is not a easy decision to just grab them. I got my first set for something like 27$, then 30$, then 39$, but I still felt they were better priced than the “official” Ferplast tubes which can run 15$ for just one tube. There is a new listing on Amazon that has some competitive ferplast brand tubes, including a T for 5$. Do check that out if you need only 1-2 more pieces. Even then per tube these will be better price. Do be aware, as others have said that each piece is counted in that 96. So to assemble 1 tube(2 sides and 1 end ring) takes 3 pieces. You also have cube wall connectors(which will not work with smaller barred cages) that count in that 96 unfortunately. Even so they are a decent deal, in my opinion. But that said, if you only buy one set, it will leave you wanting a bit more. But more is more for your hamster who could run up to 5 miles a night if it were in the wild! [...]
