Large cage recommendations for rats

[Imfinehowareyou]

Can anyone recommend a large cage for female rats? We have 2 rats but I want them to have much more space. Budget around £100. There's nothing on my local gumtree/eBay.

The critter nation is American and a good one. SRS90 is a good UK one. Or Furplast Furrat

As above. SRS = Savic royal suite. Freddy max 2 is 105 at pets at home but I just sold one for £40 second hand. There’s another one called popamazing that people get on amazon. And little zoo adventurer which you’d need to google. Check bar spacing: more than 12mm might result in smaller / younger rats escaping. You can wrap the cage in chicken wire if you’re worried. Some birdcages work too: I believe 2 cubic feet per rat is the minimum. I prefer horizontal wires as it’s easier for rats to climb them, and a deep base for shavings. Some the cages above don’t really have that but you can use a storage box or make some scatter guards out of Perspex or correx.

Mine are in two furat plus cages stacked together. I took the top off one and bottom off the other and cable tied together. They’re both 2nd hand from fb and Shpock. Cost £30 and £20. They come up all the time for sale, once I started looking I had mine in a couple of days. I’ve got two bucks in there and getting 2 more next month.

The accessories are a mixture of things I bough, things I made and things I re-purposed

I've got the Savic Freddy 2 Max for my 2 girls. It's 80 (L) x 50 (W) x 80 (H), so it's not massive but it's a good size and my 2 girls seem happy in it. It was £105 from pets at home but I've probably spent another £100 kitting it out with hammocks etc The door on it seems annoying at first but I like that it's easy to attach stuff on the sides of the cage without it getting in the way of opening doors. I use carabiner clips to attach everything so super easy to reach to the back and clip things on.

Thank you soon much. This is all really helpful
