Product description

Spacious cage for hamsters, dwarf hamsters and mice, with high floor tray, promotes natural digging behavior, incl. cage equipment made of untreated wood, with carrying handles, grid spacing: 7 mm

The Skyline Barney cage is ideal for the smallest of rodents, such as hamsters, mice and dwarf hamsters, thanks to the small grid spacing. A high bottom tray, which should be filled with a thick layer of litter, promotes the natural digging behavior of these small rodents and also keeps the environment clean.

The large door on the top and the 2 side doors allow light access to your animals and all corners of the cage. The equipment includes a platform, a ladder and a wooden house as well as a plastic running wheel. As the wooden elements are made of natural plywood and birch wood, gnawing on them is harmless. Cleaning the cage is child's play by removing the fastening clips from the base tray.

Important notice:
Stacking cages should be avoided at all costs, as the fall height for your animals increases significantly. To protect your animals, please place all cages on the floor and avoid loading the cage from above.

Note:
Please make sure your pets get enough exercise! We recommend that you provide your pet with an outdoor enclosure for daily exercise.

Please note: Please check the cage equipment regularly for damage and replace it if it is defective or if it is gnawed on in large dimensions, as otherwise injury to the animals cannot be ruled out.

Suitable for fancy mice

Large cage with plenty of space for small animals, perfect for my fancy mice as the bar spacing is small enough to prevent them from squeezing through. I can truly only recommend it.

Great cage

This cage provides great space in length and depth. I originally owned the Barney 80cm old version. Now I am delighted with the bigger size and the large lid on th top make sit easier to access the cage.

Fantastic hamster cage

This is a great, large Hamster cage that more than meets the 100cm x 50cm minimum cage size in the Uk. The base holds about 17cm of substrate and because it has narrow, 7mm bar spacing, the bedding doesn't fall out - so you can have 20cm or deeper bedding. The bar spacing is good for dwarf hamsters as well. However, with deeper bedding, this cage is more suited to Dwarf hamsters maybe as it's only 46cm. It could be suitable for a Syrian hamster as well with a deep bedding end.

Cage Barney

A fantastic cage! We received it very promptly. Lots of space to set up nicely. We’re thrilled. At this great price, there’s nothing to complain about. Thank you :)

Great mouse cage

Quite spacious for mice, though a few gaps were a bit concerning, so I quickly rewired them. But for the price, you can't complain. You only find something this big and affordable second-hand otherwise.

Super great cage for fancy mice

The cage is very spacious and offers plenty of room to add climbing options and decorate the cage in a mouse-friendly way. A really great deal for the price! The only thing that could be improved is the wheel. I definitely recommend this product to pet mouse owners.

Skyline Barney Rodent Cage A DREAM 😊

A true dream home for my teddy hamster Eddie, who spent all of yesterday exploring the entire cage and then made real joyful leaps. Large sleeping house and tiered shelf included. Eddie's large Trixie wooden exercise wheel, digging corner, hay corner – everything is possible. The cage arrived yesterday in perfect condition thanks to excellent packaging. Delivery was within two days, super sturdy quality, affordable price. It doesn't get any better than this. Highly, highly recommended!!!!!!!!

Super cage, but...

The cage is great. Our hyperactive dwarf hamster has plenty of space in it. The workmanship of the cage itself is excellent, as was the shipping. BUT: Unfortunately, during shipping, the holder for the exercise wheel (20cm diameter, which is actually sufficient for the hamster) got damaged, so it can't be used. Additionally, all the wood (platform, stairs & hut) is unfortunately splintered at the edges, so it had to be sanded down. So, a bit annoying...

The golden hamster chewed through it in just one night...

...and therefore, the cage is not suitable as a hamster cage.

Good format, no major complaints.

The only points of criticism: The material of the base tray is quite wobbly and was very warped downwards, causing the cage to wobble. This could be fixed with a hairdryer. The wooden parts tend to fray/splinter a bit. The hamster wheel is okay in size for dwarf hamsters, but the crossbars on the running surface might not be ideal. Apart from that, it's really good for the sale price. The little doors at the front are great, allowing my hamster to climb in and out on its own using a ladder for exercise.

Nice cage, but...

I had ordered the cage for my female hamster and had to realise that the cage does not quite match the dimensions stated. The cage has a length of 105 cm, which corresponds to the Skyline Ricardo Super R cage. This cage also has these dimensions. Since I didn’t want such a large cage, I had to return it due to this and other circumstances, which was very unfortunate. However, for anyone with a larger pet, it is recommended.

Lovely cage

The size is fine for my golden hamster and meets the minimum requirements that should be provided. I removed the house, and the wheel is too small even for a dwarf hamster (also removed). The platform is sturdy and secure. The base tray is fine.

Gold hamster Balu

The cage is really good, and it works perfectly for my golden hamster. He doesn’t like climbing, so I didn’t even put the ladder in. He prefers running and digging. The cage is absolutely fantastic, very spacious, and he loves running around in it. I also ordered the wheel from Trixie with a 28cm diameter, which is really big, and he runs on it all night long.

Very good

I think the cage is really good!! It's very spacious, and the little house + platform are already included, even made of wood :-) The exercise wheel isn't quite as tiny as some others, but it should ideally be replaced with a larger one (possibly also made of wood). (That's why I deducted 1 star) We added some more climbing and play options, pretty much perfect :-) It's also easy to clean and disinfect if necessary. I think the price is great too! (just under €60) Highly recommended!!

Overall, a good small animal cage

I use the cage for my golden hamster, and it meets all the requirements: the base is deep enough for bedding, the length and width comply with legal standards, and the height allows for the installation of a platform. Unfortunately, there are still a few drawbacks: the bottom is slightly curved upwards, meaning that at least in the centre of the cage, a bedding depth of 15 cm cannot be guaranteed. Additionally, the included platform is too short and collapses under even very light weight. The house should not be used as a primary house for hamsters, as it only consists of one room and does not mimic the natural multi-chamber burrow. Moreover, the wheel in my unit couldn’t be attached at all. But as I said, all in all, it’s a good small animal cage with a suitable bar spacing and well-placed flaps for opening.

Super cage for dwarf hamsters

I have a dwarf hamster hybrid, and with the size of this cage, he’s well taken care of and has plenty of space. The exercise wheel should have a diameter of at least 20cm, which is the case here, but we still replaced it with a 20cm wheel from Trixie. For golden and teddy hamsters, this wheel is not suitable as it’s too small. We also bought a digging tower here at Zooplus, which allows him to satisfy his digging instincts. Our dwarf hamster is also tame and, of course, gets to leave the cage occasionally to enjoy some free roaming. All in all, no hamster should be kept in a cage smaller than 1 metre, so this cage is fantastic and highly recommended. It arrived quickly and undamaged via DHL. TOP!!!!!!!!

Super, but WARNING!

The cage is really great. The previous version was only 80cm long. At 1m, this cage is now even better and ideal for, for example, fancy mice. But WARNING: I also ordered this cage during the cold winter months (December/January), and the plastic base arrived damaged every time. Returning it wasn’t a problem, but it’s still quite annoying. This time, I ordered in July and chose shipping via the postal service, and the cage arrived undamaged :)

Superb cage. The price/performance ratio is perfect. In some pet shops, you often only get small cages for the same money. My dwarf hamster feels very comfortable, though the ladder could have had more grooves as he slips a bit because of it. I also really love the top opening, and assembly was super easy. I can only recommend this cage!! Fast delivery, simply brilliant!!

Great

Our hamster lady feels really comfortable now... Very fast delivery... good quality with, in my opinion, lots of accessories... considering how much the included items would cost individually... a matching trolley would be nice. I can only recommend the cage.
