Question:

Such thing as a silent Hamster wheel?

I have a Crittertail cage and the wheel attaches to the wires of the cage. Its the noisiest wheel EVER. I‘ll end up taking it out during the night and putting it back next morning. Is there such thing as a silent wheel that I can replace? Thank you in advance Hamster owners )

Answer:

Ooh, I had the same problem. My mom will take it out at night and put it back in the morning . But they're nocturnal so they wont really play in the day. (I felt it was cruel at first cos I felt it was like 'forcing' them to not play at night ) But then we bought an OVO habitrail and it includes a wheel which is quite quiet and silent . But OvO habitrail has its pros and cons tho. You might want to try buying the silent spinner . :D
Really good! Her chewing on the bars wont hurt her teeth. The cage is a little to small for a syrian, I would recommend getting cheap tubes that can lead to different things or something. I have mine wrap around the backside of the cage with a little hous in the middle. The other thing is your not supposed to wash it with soap. Just use a little bit of Dish Soap(Unless that's what you meant that you were doing lol) And then rinse thoroughly becuase they don't like the smell of the soap or if some is still there it will agitate their skin. Just a little thing that I do is put toilet paper in there for her to shred and use as bedding.(: I hope that this helps!! Good luck!!
There is such a thing but in general no wheel will be perfectly silent if a hamster is using it because its going around and around isn't it, if you don't like the sound it makes then move him into another room while your asleep, problem solved :-)
