Is it a normal behaviour when a hedgehog bite/lick/chew its own limbs? My Jo is doing that right now, right after waking up from her nap on my lap.

Anyone know how to do??

I'm planning to buy a hedgehog for my brother as a gift.  Does anyone can suggest me pet shop near shah Alam n Klang valley with reasonable price

ladies and gentlemen. I would really like to know where i can get good bedding for my hog... because few days ago i've been using some wood shavings but my hog was hurt due to it... so is there any other recommendations out there? I've googled about it, the best is Aspen Shavings? Currently I'm using a piece of cloth and some tissue... which it's quite smelly... So please recommend me some? Please n Thank you.

How is pinto guy now? Lordy, I hope mine doesn't need to go through it. Hope she is more like her mum.

Hello every1, I'm a hedgie owner too.. I found out recently my hedgie is super excited in eating mealworms.. but from what I read from the thread.. feeding them 1~2 per weeks is good and enough...

But I'm feeding her every day ... will it cause the problem ?

hey everyone,

i have a female hedgehog, about 1 year 8 months old. normally i use to scoop her up under the belly from the cage to clean it (the cage).

i did the same regularly everyweek, so as last week. as normal i scoop her up and place her gently on the washroom floor, i see it walking away normally to one corner where she likes to do her business.

but then i see her coming out limping at the left back foot, this is not the first time she is limping. her front left(or right, cant remember) was limping when she was 3-4 months old also and she recovered later.

so i thought probably she sprained her foot, i monitor her for 1 week. she still eats and drinks like usual. today i want to clean the cage again, so i scoop her up and this time i turn her around to have a look at the foot and belly.

and i found a large lump under her left chest, around the breast area of the left foot. her back left foot is still limping and she is dragging it. her front feet are normal, no limping motion when she moves.

is it a tumour already? i have looked around the internet, said WHS is common among hedgehogs and the symptoms starts with the dragging of the back feet. does it start with one or both?

i do not have picture now, will upload it tomorrow of her belly side.

I'm not concerned about the leg, i do not know whether WHS starts with one leg or both.

I'm more worried about the swollen part at the left Breast. Will bring her to kinrara vets as recommended by most ppl here. Is it still appropriate to go or there are better vets?

ok, so i got her back from doc dev.

still too weak to drink or eat on its own. what food or fluid you guys use to feed hogs like this?

not sure.. how to check?

my brother is getting his first hedgie but he wants me to help taking care of it during weekdays.
im very nervous and not confident at all taking care of fragile animals.
hope everything will be allright all the way.

yeah,i'm doing some reading. just hope my parents won't simply throw food inside like what they did to my dog.
anyways, i thought of using cloth as bedding. is there any type of cloth that i should not use?

Questions:
1. When should I feed? since they are nocturnal, should I feed morning or night?
2. Is one 1 tablespoon a day enough for 3mth hedgie?
3. Will they show signs that they are hungry?

is it better to leave the heggie inside the cage exposed or give it a place to hide? because i thought of letting him get used to the new environment and noises, so that he's not timid. i currently let him hide in his box all the time and each time i lift the box, he'll curl up, huff and pop. let him smell my hand but no respond. and i think i'm stressing him out with the bonding.

I took his box away and replace with a cup. That way I can see him. Saw him eat and drink too, which was a relief.

Btw, do they respond when you call them?

the bulge on the bottom of the tail is something i should worry about or that is just his male part?

Yo guys, have a question. New to hedgehog here I understand from the 1st post that hedgehogs prefer to be left alone. Hence, If I have 2 hedgie , i must seperate them ? Cannot put in the same box/home ? Also, does gender matter if I can out them together ?
Thx

I see.. Thanks yea.

I just bought my baby less than a week and I brought her to a vet to check up becuz of suspicious dry and flaky skin on her face and her legs.. scratching everytime and dropping quills.. the doctor told me that it could be a sign of mites! He gave me some drops and antibiotics. Problem is I don't know how to feed my baby the anti biotic . she just won't open her mouth...
