i dont own a hedgehog but my friend does and i posting a few questions for her
she has an albino hedgehog and his skin is a purpleish color. is this normal for albinos?
i have not seen it yet so i am not sure how purple but when i have been to her house before i never noticed his skin being purple before
also she doesn't have a heating element on him and can't afford one right now, i know , i know, but i have already told her she needs one asap.
anyway i have an extra fixture i can loan her but i dont have a red bulb or CHE, would a regular heat bulb be ok to leave on 24/7 for now until she can get one of the other two?
i dont know a lot about hedgehogs since i don't own one, but i do know they need heat and i do know he is on a good diet(b/c i told her what to buy)
he is on wellness and royal canin mixed.
any help is most appreciated
thanks
