My old hedgehog 'Tater had to be pts some time ago. (Old old age) I have a 2 yo hedgie named Christmas now. (My daughter named him) im not as close to him as he is a biter!

not sure how close this is to you - I lived in the hagerstown area for a while
also you can call local farms and ask if they would be willing to sell you one bale
I am actually from the hedgie side - but I own horses - so I know how to buy hay - :) seriously - check the paper and cragislist for hay for sale - you can buy one bale (please ask on the size as some hay bales can be over 1,000lbs!) ask if you can buy a bale - tell them what it is for
when you...
'Tater lately has been scratching and digging in her cage - in her sleeping spot in her little box - last night she would NOT stop - it was so loud it woke me up another room away!!!!
she dug for like 30 minutes - finally I got up to check on her to make sure she didnt have a blanket caught on a...
to the girl I met by perchance last night - found out we were both part of the forum here when I started talking about my hedgie - *waves* such a small world!
sorry you didn't get to meet 'Tater! But I was glad to meet you!
she is omly a year old :( I think it might defiantly be the light issue - but will check temp again.
My rooms are right beside the boiler - so it is ungodly hot for me (who loves the cold) but should be perfect for her...
My poor Tot
I check 'Tater twice a day - and lately have been getting a little concerned - she has not been as active lately - nor eating as much as she used to - although she seems in good health - eyes bright etc not loosing weight
I did move to a new place and my room does not get a ton of light -...

I am getting a rescue kitten next week - and am totally psyched
doing my research and what not - I thought I would start switching 'Tater's food to a healthier food for her (currently on spikes delight - which the name I love - but after looking closely at her poop the other day - I realize...
I am sorry but I just LOVE the name Sally Snert - that is just too dang cute!!!!! you should write a children's story about Sally Snert!
Love all the hedgie pics
Hedgies make my heart smile too - is anything they do NOT cute?
well she is defiantly running on her wheel - I found poop every wear yesterday morning. *big sigh* I do keep her in the warmest room in my house - my bedroom - I have the house temp set at 69-74 degrees depending on the day - but my room is ALWAYS warmer than the temp. do you think the temp is...
Nothing I can really put my finger too
I noticed she has lost more quills recently - Not noticeable on her - but I am finding them more often.
She is waaaayy grumpy - she used to be way more cuddly and friendly now it seems as if she really isnt enjoying attention at all :(
Her cage habits...
Seriously My dog Greta *loves* little things- she esp has taken a shining to 'Tater - she always tries to kiss 'Tater and keeps coming back for more - NEVER EVER tries to hurt my hedgehog although I would NEVER leave them unattended. I actually put 'Tater on the floor today and Greta was so...
