Hi all, I recently went to buy my first batch of meal worms for Filbert but when I arrived at the shop and saw the small plastic containers I saw a few beetles in there with them, I hesitated and in the end walked out empty handed. Does this mean that the worms are not being properly...

Hi all, I was online reading about hedgies and came across this website: http://www.petinfopackets.com/hedgehogs/hedgehoginfopacket.html On it, it lists the follwing as hedgie aceptable treats: * Peeled apples * Cooked chicken * Fresh banana * High quality baby food (meat...

Im going to have to have a proper look into it i think!! Filberts wheel was not poopy last night night and I was imediately worried. The counter would help with that I think.

He is indeed, i'm starting to wonder why I ever wished for a poopy wheel!!!! Hows your mile counter working out?

I really dont know, you said shes on a light cycle? could it be the light that's bothering her? I had the same concerns with my baby hedgie but as soon as i switched to a ceramic heat lamp instead of infrared which gives off a red light he became a party animal. I know yours is no longer a baby...

What was the vets verdict?

My hedgie smells like pee pee most of the time! :(

Hahahaha, I didn't realise that this was a 'thing'. I would be worried she wasn't peeing if she didnt smell of it all the time. She should learn that if she hates baths she shouldn't pee so carelessly!

Thoughts are with you and little Koopa.

Let us know the outcome of the vet visit.

Im so sorry to hear that.

I wish i had more of a clue to be able to help you. I'm a first time owner myself so don't really have much to offer in the way of advice. Im assuming you've checked all the comon avenues like the temperature etc?

Filbert was odd. The first week I had him he pooped perfectly in his litter box. After that though he stopped pooping in his litter box and starting nudging the it out of the way so that he could burrow under the blankets poop under the blankets and the nudge the litter box back ontop of the...

How is your baby this morning¿

Hi guys! So I took Filbert to the vet yesterday for a general check up and they say he's absolutely fine. I bought a ceramic heat emitter and switched it over yesterday. Lo and behold I got home last night at 4.30 am and found him on a poopy wheel!!!! I was so insanely happy and went to sleep...

Hiya all! I've been fairly absent as i've been quite ill. For the last 5 days i've been sleeping on the sofa as I was too weak to climb the stairs to my room. My flatmate was kind enough to refil Filbert's water and food bowls but unfortunately is no pet inclined enough to give him atention...

I've just got home (2am) and you are correct smhufflepuff, the temp dips at night, it is at 22º right now.

my room itself is 25º

No he has a heat mat too but he doesnt seem to like in much, in his old cage he did, perhaps he just prefers the heat from the infra red. Not sure if i should wait until i can change it out for a ceramic heat emiter bulb (though im not sure if i would have to buy a whole new lamp as well) or...

Hmmm, i cant "weight" to see what Filbert weighs! Im getting my scale today. C'mon mr odometer delivery man!!!!
