mhmm, emptied a can of mosquito repellant on it (water based) and haven't let lil on that particular patch for 2 days so far.

also, i was referring to huffy's tongue :P


albino hogs are pretty common so their prices should be the same if not lower than other variants.

Psh, his tongue's still the same. I haven't had the time to bring him (or even make an appointment) to the vet because it's super far away & I'm super busy.

given the circumstances you're already doing the best you could by monitoring his condition, imo.

Juz traveled wif my boy from Johor Bahru till Sungai Peatni, Kedah.....he pooped, pee-ed, vomitted along the way and now sleeping in his tiny box, will go n get a bigger container for him this afternoon

Not necessary, there's once my hedgie was infected by mites. Since there's still a ball at the tip i assumed that it's not a mite infection but just dry skin. (there's some weird patches on their skin.) As times goes by, the patches got worst and the vet said that it's a mite infection.

If it's on his/her quilling stage then there's nothing much to worry about. I think different hedgehog has different number of quills, my albino female has less quills compare to the others but still healthy

How's Huffy now?

Huffy's doing great.
I let him loose in the toilet today while I washed his toyogo box.
He ran the whole perimeter, round and round he went like a toy car. xD
Very active & eating well.
Growth on tongue is still there.

NEW OWNER HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!RAWR!!!

Turns out my college has many hedgie parents (including lecturers) O: never knew this until i got my girl.

Nephthys love the new wheel! but yeah.. she poops and pee a lot on it that she needs more baths... and its amusing to find a big poop ball in the wheel this morning XD I think its a combination of around 5 to 6 big poop and it was a perfect round ball shape XD it must be rolling with Nephthys as she runs the wheel

and yay, many many beetles now, can't wait to see new baby mealworms <3

ouch, i go to petshop and wanted to buy the mealworms which dey called it as " da chong" , it is fking ugly and in the end, i din buy any as it was too disgusting.. zzzz

Bringing Leo out to my house's garden

daddy, dun put me down!!!!!



where am i????







there is something on the ground, lets dig it



marking my territory

@ Yang5209: It's not realy necessary to feed them mealworms. You can choose to feed them crickets if they don't freak you out. Super mealworms are super creepy. They look icky. Mealworms are much more tolerable.

@ ddr3: D'aww, Leo looks SUPER happy.

ya he is so happi n now sleeping using superman pose, guess he is tired from running around

I was considering getting a gecko - but then I stumbled upon this thread and omg! Hedgehog #FTW ! Lol

So now I'm very seriously considering getting a hedgehog, I have inquired with some breeders in the pet store section.

Any tips for a new hedge owner? In terms of housing, care etc? - I have read the entire front page, just looking for added tips

Thanks.
