Question
Hi! Thank you for your help! About the whole cage thing, we have this thing called Freecycle. We get free things off there, and I was thinking of getting a tank from there. Would that be alright? Also, how much do secondhand hamster wheels usually cost? Thanks for the help!          Melissa

Answer
Getting a tank from there would be fine but just make sure you clean it out properly before letting your hamster in it.

Hamster wheels can be all different prices but  you should be able to get one for between 6 and 10 dollars.

A new one from a petshop might be just as cheap though.

Kind Regards,

Tammy
