You should feed hedgies one tablespoon a day.

Oh i just noticed , i feed my hedgie superworm , not mealworm. damn they are the same just bigger size D:

yes.. superworm more big..
mealworm celah gigi pun tak lepas... hehehe

Haha my hedgie will always bug me to feed her superworm

make sure hibari exercises more ._.! superworms have a higher fat content.

i only feed my cockatiel those like once a week to get him to behave when i mist spray him with water.

I don't like the look of superworms. They look abnormally large.
I'm sticking with normal-sized mealworms. xD

you should see this lizard called uh. "chao long" (grass dragon?) or something to that effect that my dad used to feed his shamas. shiny gecko's ._.

squirms*

thats why i always force her to runnnn!! grrr. i wanna buy a wheel D: . cant find anywhere!!

what kinda toys u give ur hedgie to play with?

hello..

anyone here ever feed their hedgies with roach?
not house roach but feeding roach like turkish roach / blaptica roach or dubia roach?
coz some ppl tell these roach more better than cricket..
may share some experiance?

Well it could eat , but yeah i dont like roaches so i will never feed my hibari roaches.

OMG SO EXPENSIVEEEEE WHEEEEL

No, I don't think anyone here feeds their hedgie with roaches.
You can feed them Dubia roaches since hedgie owners from different parts of the world said hedgies love 'em.

Personally, I wouldn't buy nor feed roaches of any species to my hedgehogs. xD
I hate roaches & my mum will kill me if I bring roaches home. SHe's already complaining about my mealworm farm. LOL.

Nah, the wheel's the cheapest one among all. Shipping one from overseas costs more than that.

You could be like Shukri & make the wheel if you're hardworking enough?

hahahaha...
so they (hedgies) eat dubia roach? cricket cepat mati lah...
whoa.. u have mealworm farm aaa....
i also wanna make superworm farm...
my hedgies love superworm
the male getting fat and fatttt.. hes lazy to jogging around not like female one...
always jogging from midnight until morning

@mav_850 - you could try rearing them, but the level of difficulty made me quit halfway when i tried it (i can't stand the dried puke stench they give off)

if you're interested, this site has some good info :)


@telileti - hows chubs doing ._o?

haha nvm i just force her run everyday enuff xD

LOL, my mealworm farm hasn't been very productive at all.
I got my first beetle, which died about 1 week after it evolved.
Then I got 3 larvae together with the new set of worms that I bought from a different pet shop (the worms were bigger).
Then 3 larvae died last week. I'm still keeping them for some reason. xD

So far, ZERO beetles, ZERO larvae, lotsa fat mealworms.

It's a chore to replace their bedding every week & replace the moisture source I put in every 2-3 days.
If I don't take the apple/choy sum out after a few days, moulds start growing on the oats (thus I have to throw it all out).

I sift the worms every weekend. Takes me...more than 30 minutes?
I bought a tiny, fine sift to sift all the frass (worm poop) out. Then I spend the next 29 minutes picking the live worms out of the sift, into the container again, ONE BY ONE.

Chubster's on her 35th day today. She ate less than usual today. We'll see by tomorrow if there's any babies.
If not, I'll wait till mid-August before she goes on a diet.
I picked her up 2 days ago. She is ROUND & DARN HEAVY AT THAT.
Her cheeks pretty much puffed out larger than ever with all that fat that's in her.

try la DIY wheel ...

^ Finding items , cant seem to find the right thing for rotation

yeah.. looking for silent bearing...

I am using waveboard (already broken) wheel (I have one left ). U can find it at bicycle shop. Last time I replace the wheel for kid's scooter which looks similar. The spare part wheel is sold about RM15-RM20 each. Alternatively, u can use roller skate wheel, caster wheel (can find at hardware), sliding door caster/ wheels.

I fix the wheel to cake container using cable tie. I made holes on the wheel, cake container and PVC pipe using Iron solderer (only RM2 at RM2 shop). I made stand using PVC pipe (3 Feet), 1 T PVC pipe joint, 2 L and joint 3 caps. Dont glue the pipe because it is tight enough.

For cutting the PVC pipe. I suggest when u bought the pipe u ask them to cut it (2 pieces of 1 feet, 2 pieces of 1/5 feet) this can reduce your work.
