i think it's safe to say everyone here feed their hedgehogs daily. one spoon of kibbles should be enough, and like what mamata said if you're afraid of obesity then put a wheel in the tank, your hedgehog will surely run and poop in it every night.
it's normal for them to come out in the night, mine's extra active after 12, he'll come out and walk around, run on the wheel, finish the food, and poop all over the place. occasionally i'll check on him and turn on the lights, he'll stop whatever he's doing and head straight back to his hidebox. don't worry about it.

plan to have hedgehogs... but not sure if they r suitable not for me.. u guys find hedgehog easy to be cared not??

i think if you really love the pet you won't find it any hard to take care of it. it's definitely easier to take care compared to dogs or cats, it's just the case of whether you enjoy washing the wheel everyday or not...

if you're asking us i'm sure everyone of us think hedgehogs are great pets to have, so we're a little bit biased here.

@cim,
hope your hedgehogs get well soon, keep us updated on anything regarding their health.
