what happend with huffster tongue? have pic?
you should bring him to vet.

Yea i think its best to go to the vet too, the vets recommended for exotic pets listed on the vet thread D:

No picture because I can't (and don't dare) to pry his mouth open.

I see some white finger-like growth sticking out of the bottom of his tongue whenever he licks his nose.

I'm going to monitor it for a week or two first and see if it's growing.

need opinions from all of you

is this considered as bald? coz my hedgie seems gt less quills at his back....

No, Chubby's back is like that as well.

really? coz i can see his skin at his back, n he quills drop a lot, hope he is quilling then coz gt new quills coming up but slow

a little bald.. since he's quilling.. i dun think there's anything to worry bout rite..

personally i would head to the vet to confirm, since we can't really monitor something like a touchwood* tumor, what with placebo effect and all.

lil had a "growth" under her chin .. but then hair started sprouting from it so it went from a tumor scare to beauty mark celebration ._x;

Brought Nephthys out to the park again, this time she ran around a bit but still end up trying to blend into the grass as a round cushion of spikes after a while.. not much exercise from there. But i did caught her a few times running the wheel outside her cage, thought when she sees me she'll stop and hurry back into her cage ~_~

lil's fav spot in my garden .. or rather parent's place's garden is being overrun by ants! ants i tells ya!

she was peacefully chillin till she started scratching and running around in circles while sniffing, licking and chewing around a circumference. upon closer inspection.. i found ants!

gurgh.

dont worry. my old hedgehog 'love' ants too. She will purposely go to a place infested with ants and get bitten

she was going back to "fight" the ants. lol

should've recorded how fidgety she was when she scrambled from her chill spot when she was attacked first by the ants :X

Do they eat ants? O_o

i dont think so.. my hedgehogs wont eat the food in their bowl if got ants!
they starting eat when i clear that ants from the bowl. hahaha..

i certainly hope not ><

wanna ask about the quilling stage of a hedgie, when its quilling, many quills will drop out right? around how many quills will com out per day? and will there be any bald patched on the body?

my boy is 7 months n i think he is quilling coz at the bald patches there are new quills popping out. I do check every quills for the balls at the end, all attached.....so mites being ruled out....bt still the process of dropping quills are terribly fast, thats why i got worried.......anyone? thanks

No, it's normal.
No need to worry unless the ball at the end of the quill is missing.
Chubby's back looks like that as well.
