The German Hamsterforum recently ran a survey on cage size (read via Google translate). Results can be found here (read via Google translate) and on the blog "Zwei Nachttierchen erzählen" (~ stories by two nocturnal animals ;) (read via Google translate) where you can see a graphic analysis of the data separated by syrians (diagrams "MH Statistik" and "Mittelhamster") and dwarf hamsters (inkluding chinese hamsters, diagram "ZH Statistik" and "Zwerghamster"). Cage size is given in square meters (m²); 0.1m² is slightly more than a square foot. Note that in German the "," is used instead of the "." (eg. 0,4m² in German = 0.4m² in English or roughly 4 square feet).
Result overview:
262 users out of ~3200 registered users on the forum (about 8%) took the poll.
These own on average 2.25 hamster cages with an average size of 0.7m² (~7 feet square) per cage.
The biggest number of cages is 0.6m² (~6 feet square).
Many thanks to all those who did the work to analyze and visualize the data!
