ok, i hope i can get some enlightenment here from those who has experience rearing hedgehogs.
recently i bought one newborn about 3 weeks old, its a female. she is active and eat a lot but one thing bothers me. its her front right leg, it looks like twisted/ sprained/ broken to me and she limps when she walks. btw my bedding is recycled papers so i thought perhaps she is not used to the new bedding.
what suggestions are there? thanks
here are the attached photo, when it rolls up all the limbs should be inside right? though the pic of her sleeping looks pretty normal, i have another pic which shows her front right leg cannot bend at all. to upload tomorrow
3 weeks old? i though should buy hedgehog that is 2 month old will be better. btw, the leg not necessarily curl in as my cinnamon are not curl in as well sometime.. but if broken then you should take her to vet and bring it back to the place you buy it.. it start with the first day you buy or any accident happen??recently i bought one newborn about 3 weeks old, its a female. she is active and eat a lot but one thing bothers me. its her front right leg, it looks like twisted/ sprained/ broken to me and she limps when she walks. btw my bedding is recycled papers so i thought perhaps she is not used to the new bedding.
