i have plenty of time and patients my dwarf hamster get alot of attention and play

That cage is way too small for a syrian I'm afraid. My 2 dwarf hamsters are housed separately and their cages alone are bigger then that. They need space to run about at night when you are asleep.

Syrians in the wild would regullarly walk up to 8 miles a day so try to imagine that even the biggest hamster cages (mine are in hamster heavens which are 70cm long) arent really big enough, even coming out to play isnt enough if they are put back in a cage that is too small, its the perfect way to create cage aggression.

that is MUCH too small, the absolute bare MINIMUM for a hamster is 18" x 12" you also need to be able to fit a 8" wheel in for a syrian

im sorry but you really need to do your research before you get a hamster

males and females can not be housed together even when breeding, if left together the female WILL kill the male after mating

Yes you really need double the sized of that cage at least. As OP said you need an 8" wheel. Males and females are kept separate until the moment of mating. I would advise you against mating hamsters though...there are plenty of experienced breeders who struggle to sell off the babies.

I'm kinda new too, but isnt that a little small for even two chinese?
If you adopt or rescue, they will probably not allow you to take a syrian without making sure your not going to breed it.
I really suggest you research more, I did 2weeks everyday of research before deciding to adopt my syrian, you really need to know whats best for both you and your future hamster.
I like many others suggest you get a Hamster Heaven, if you want an "easy to get your hands on cage" thats really suitable If its a little expensive, you can look around and maybe find one around the same size for cheaper ebay is good for second hand hamster heavens also.
