@love2RODEO1 Old post but don't use a hamster wheel, use a solid wheel with no holes or bars in the actual wheel. Bars or holes in the wheel could and probably will allow your hedgehogs leg to get stuck in there and possibly break a leg.
HI i owned the same hedgehog wheel and I soon realised i had mage a bad choice. the wheel tips and could potentionelly kill your hedgehog, as they almost did to mine.Just a word of caution
alot of people said never you wheels for hedgehogs you let the roam around your bedroom alot of people siad wheels with hedgehogs usally can cause broken or sprained legs i just wouldnt want you to be sad if your hedgehog gets hurs it so cute
Just a warning... my hedgehog had this exact same wheel. Within 2 months it somehow broke, then flew off the base and either broke his leg or sprained it badly. Also, one of his nails broke off causing his foot to bleed. He couldn't walk on it for almost 2 weeks before it started to heel. Anyway, I'll never get another Silent Spinner again. I'm looking into a Wodent Wheel or something a little more safer and robust.
I have a wodent wheel. Its great man. The only downfall to is is that its not open like this one is, making it harder to clean. But i would deffinately recommend it.
@fringelife My parents just cut a plastic bucket in half, one of those tall ones and I guess for a wheel bearing they used a roller skate wheel and some PVC piping for the stand, works great aside from the fact that the wheels need to be cleaned every week. Our hedgehogs loved to run the wheel and poop on the run.
I have one, I didnt trust the stand either, I just didnt use it..and bolted the wheel onto the cage. I've never had any problems...its never fallen or anything.
i got the same wheel for my hedgehog, but he keeps pooping on it ;( i hate cleaning it everyday. he ONLY poops on the wheel...

@justinruleseverythin it is natural for a hedgehog to go to the bathroom on the run and there is really nothing you can do about it

@love2RODEO1 The plastic wheel shown in the video above is perfect. Metal hamster wheels aren't safe for a hedgie's bones.

Try to make a DIY one with a bucket. Test it by spining it rapidly.

The silent spinner is dangerous o.o I don't know about a wooden wheel though, sounds kinda un-sanitary.

@kalereborn Haha, my hedgehog does also poop and pee on the run every night.
One morning, we found a perfect round ball of sh!t inside the wheel :-p
Anyway, I have to clean the mess up every day ....
