Unfortunately my little guy (Koopa) Lost his fight later that afternoon :( He must have had some kind of defect that his Mommy could sense.. He went comfortably, with a full belly, all warm & cozy.

My Female Hedgie had a large litter of 5 little Hoglets yesterday. This morning as I walked past the cage, Pinky (the Hedgie mom) runs up to the side of the cage with a baby in her mouth! At first I thought she was just moving him around the cage, then I noticed her running around the cage for...

Thank you all! ~Unfortunately I had no idea the little Hedgie was doing bad at all :( I wish I would have known so maybe I could have given advice! I have been trying to find any kind of illness/disease that would make them not grow..but I have not found anything so far..

Hello everyone, I was hoping to get some advice.. After doing some pretty extensive research, I recently got into Hedgehog breeding, I got a nice little group of adults picked out, all healthy, good temperaments & all pedigreed. Well, my first litter was ready to go mid-March. This morning I...

Have not had a good oppertunity to get any pics without disturbing the nest yet :/

Pinky had 3 little hoglets last night :heart5: So happy that Momma and babies are doing well!! Just had to share the excitement!

last night, she just layed in her igloo, eyes wide open all night, she got up to use the litter box once, then it was right back to her igloo..

Hello everyone! Just wondering, based on personal experiences (because I have read every bit of info on the web) When do most of YOUR Hedgehogs have their pups? Pinky is due tomorrow!! at 35 days. she is plump, eating less, and sleeping more. I have heard that most are right on schedule at 35...

Thank you everyone! She is doing well, eating like crazy, running around when she comes out to play. I am not certin if she fell or climbed down, I assumed she fell because I do not think a hedgehog's sight would allow for them to "so carefuly" climb down lol. Her cage is not very high up, but...

Its horrible, I know! My female hedgehog is possibly pregnant (Due Jan 25th if she is) and last night I found her on the floor running around next to my Males cage! Her cage is on a shelf above his. I dont know how she could have gotten out, but either way...she did. Just wondering if anyone...

Just wondering what the best nesting material is to offer my expecting hedgie :)

So today I noticed a spot on pokeys back where the quills were green. only had him a month and hes not all the way comfortable with me so we haven't tried a bath yet. Are their disorders where quills turn green? could just need a bath lol just checking..:hmm:

that is good to know about the food, he dosent eat a whole lot of it, so I will have to try mixing them :) I will be getting him out later and hoping for a non-biting experience lol

during the day I am a stay at home mom, but so far he has only bitten my husband (who IS a smoker) so maybe that could be it.. he has licked my hands over and over. After he started biting my husband, I just started assuming that it would lead to a bite, so it made me nervous to let him get the...

We have had Pokey for only a little over a month, (I know, lots of warming up time left) but he is very curious when we put our hands into his cage.. We always wash our hands with dish soap before letting him sniff us. He comes right up to us and starts to lick, and lick...and lick until he...
