Hi, I got an albino female hedgehog, d.o.b was 21 january 2011. I was just wondering, wat her weight should actually be and what size? And another thing is, I let my friend kept her for 1 week, but delayed, so only took back after 2 weeks, and thanks to my friend, there's like black stain on her spikes, i tried bathing her with johnson baby shampoo, the stain DID NOT fade even a little, I was thinking of using apple cider vinegar, will it help/harm the hedgehog? or wat would you recommend? thanks.

no stain, VERY white and clean looking, and fatter, thats why i took back today i was very angry, i clean and clean cannot remove, used vinegar no use, and now its so dirty looking, and now thinner to me, it weighs 260grams, is it too light? and she's very small size.

There are no specific weights for hedgehogs because certain hedgehogs can weigh in at 400g while another could weigh in at 250g at the same age.

If her tummy & sides are sunken in, that means that she's not been getting enough nutrients.
Just give her a little more kibble than usual & see if she fattens up after a while.

Do not let that friend of yours take care of your pets anymore in the future.

If that stain doesn't seem to be bothering the hedgie, leave it alone.
You might be doing more harm trying to remove the stain if you keep bathing her since this will cause really dry skin.

I'm sure the stain will fade with time. smile.gif

thanks for replying, I appreciate it!
yes, it's sunken in, she's feeding on IAMS cat food, purple pack, but she doesnt wants to eat it, only if I feed her worms, she wants it. and yes, its sunken in, yeah, lesson learnt, never trust anyone with your lovely pet cry.gif she close the lid halfway and went she came back, there's stain already, but it's BLACK, like so ugly =/

As long as the skin looks fine with no scabs or bleeding, leave the stain alone. smile.gif
Change to Royal Canin 36 if possible because IAMS is of mediocre quality only.
Do not give her more than 8 worms a day because she's actually learning that if she doesn't eat kibble, you'll give her worms.
