A look at what is currently available on eBay
Is this cage big enough for my 4 rats (2 hairless and 2 rex)??
I took out the wheel, because they get enough time out of their cage playing on my bed and with me each day. and they have one house to hide in, and a "cozy cup" thing, 3 hanging wooden bird toys, and 4 chew toys.
Is it big enough??

They are out of their cage, and with me, for at least 20 minutes each day, usually more. and they have tubes and tents, and crinkle tunnels when they play outside of their cage. And i use my hand and play "tag" with them, and wrestle with them.
They are definitly loved, i just wanna make sure their cage is big enough!!
This cage can comfortably house two rats-

As a general rule, buy the largest cage you can afford-
Female rats though smaller require more space than male, because they are playful and curious, whereas males are more into cuddling and sleeping.
Generally cages made for rats are too small, you might want to consider looking at ferret cages which would provide a nice space for your four rats, and room for plenty of toys!
Ensure that the cage bottom is solid, and not wire, to avoid foot problems!
Make sure your rats have an igloo- (a cardboard box with a hole in it works fine- or an ice cream pail flipped upside down, with a door way cut into it will suffice)
Your rats require at least an hour of time out of their cages and with you- or twenty minutes several times a day-
Here are some cages that would suit four rats-

I just bought a nine level ferret cage second hand- try posting on online classified sites that you are looking to buy a ferret cage in good condition- you'll save a bundle and get a larger cage!
