I just got my hedgie 8 days ago. Tonight I came to get her for some holding time and she was wrapped into the flannel I had in her cage. When I unwrapped her she was gasping for breath. I tried to get her to drink water and Gatorade using a syringe, but about 10 minutes later she was gone.
She was suppose to be 8 weeks old when I got her. The man sold me some pellets and said to soak them in water for a few weeks, which I did. I have to say I saw her drinking water, but her food intake was small. I feel so bad about this. I plan on contacting the breeder tomorrow. Do you think he will replace her, or is this a completely silly idea on my part. I feel that I should have tried more on my part to try to get her to eat, but I really didn't think it was a major problem. Opinions, please.
