nethelp, cheer up k??

mayb mum is too stress, try breeding em twice a year instead of three.

RIP

Haha.. Cute boy! Naughty Boy!

Lolz, hedgehog are smart indeed. My ginger once lie down sideways and use her paw to tumble the feeding bowl so that she can eat! Ginger the lazy girl!

Most probably. when ginger gave birth for the first time, she drag the bowl into her box

Won't it be difficult to wash the wheels when it's attached to the cage?

Hedgehogs CAN get flu from human. Hedgehogs also CAN get flu from other pets or fellow hedgehogs.

If human have flu, try staying away as much as possible.
If pets or other hedgehog have flu, wash your hands before handling other animals.


If hedgie don't like mealies, you can try chopping off the mealies into two and feed it.

Also, hedgehog does not have large intestine. So, try feeding them less vegetables and fruits.

You're welcome.

Just curious, when do we need to change the version? Is there a maximum number of post that is limited for a topic?

Do you provide them wheels? What brand do you feed your hedgehog?


@TeliLeti: Sure. Haha. But I'll do it during sem break. Any objections?

they don't need wheels to eat. Just that if they don't have, their activity level might be low so they need less food. haha. welcome to the world of hedgehog!

I'll bring them to the toilet bowl!

Sad case! haha...

pet shop in general treats animal badly. To them it's 'stock'. not 'life'

I don't think they will have any problem. Born to be stepped i think? Cause the mother always step on the babies.

Sure, but do not use cedar shaving. It's poisonous to small animal in general.

Dog foods and cat foods are staple food for hedgehog in captive. However, do not choose low quality food lar.. haha...

welcome to the group!..



Gratz Telileti, are your parent hogs from nethelp?

Nah... I'm quite busy nowadays. Midterm and presentation season d.. lolz.

What are you guys doin g now?.. I'm currently a uni student.

That is an interesting video btw. xD

Haha, escape proofing is important. They can hide at place where you least expected. Previously, the height of the cage are too low and Pepper escape.

I thought it got lost since I couldn't find him. I was so sad. The next morning, my mum wake me up because Pepper was in her WARDROBE!
My mum love them but don't dare to catch.

Mine run the opposite way!


Careful though, if they get overworked, they'll drown

Lol, I thought it's just mine. Because both batch of my hoglets will have a hoglet with a smaller size. btw, one of my hoglet got sick. It's something weird that even the vet at my area have to refer to Taiping Zoo. Hope that they'll reply me soon.

Congratz on the PINTO.. MR Lucky who have a recessive gene hedgehog and a patterned hoglet!
You can get storage box from tesco. They're cheap compare to cages in pet store . How much is the playpen cost in the previous page?

You mean the color of the hoglets?

And they keep sniffing everywhere!

The symtoms of the baby... hmm... like red spot at his eyebrow and nose. swollen legs and bruise. It's not a result of fighting because non of the others have the same symtoms.

lol.. cute hoglets..

I got mine from an exhibition in my campus. I remembered buying them for RM 140 and RM 120 for albino and snp (unrelated).

the first batch of hoglets are 3 female and 2 male
2 are cinnamon and 3 are albino

DDR3 is having one of the cinnamon
btw, hows the little one?

erm.. I didn't miss out anything, didn't i?

Yeah... it's perfectly fine... i think almost all hedgehog does that, at least mine does.

Some article mentioned that we have to give them a constant day night cycle with a minimum of 12 hours of light to prevent hibernation.

However, i don't find it convincing because i once left my hedgehogs in the dark for 2 days. well, not totally dark in the morning because the curtain blocked the sunlight but i still consider the room to be dark.

any different thought on this matter?

What i did to watch them playing is to turn on the bathroom's light and leave the door half open.

Cheers

Yup. Since both yours and mine doesn't hibernate then I dont' think it's possible
