do hedgies make sounds?

mine do when he is angry ..

only when angry la? not like glider, will hiss bark and god-noes-what at unearthly times at midnight...

Hurmm...from ma experiance, i think hedgie only makes few sound..
Hedgie usually do loud huffing and popping sound..This is usually because they feel intimidate or threaten...
Imagine ma self walking alone in the dark and suddenly hear the sound make by hedgie....Scary wohhhh....

haha!!! ok la... so a hedgie aint as annoying as sugar glider when it comes to sounds at midnight... great!

n still waiting for breeder to reply... dunno y take so long wan...

over all hedgies doesn't make sounds like dogs, birds nor gliders..

don't worry bro..

please don't forget that hedgies are nocturnal, means they will sleep during day time and eat at dusk..

Bonai, dulu u use to own a hedgie kn? Quite long missing in action...
Buzy with glider meh? Anyway, welcome back bro hahaha

i thought hedgies are diunal...?

frm what i heard some is diunal la...

More to nocturnal. Out of many many a few might be diurnal.
Usually if hedgehogs are active during the day, they might not be feeling well, injured, sick, in pain, looking for a place to give birth. Other than that, they'll likely sleep throughout the day.

Hedgehogs make several kinds of sound.
- When the male is trying to mate with the female. Female will make squicking noise
- When in pain. Something like sea lion sound
- Hoglets crying for mother, like birds chirping
- Hurfing and purfing when angry / annoyed

moved to shah alam 6 months ago and had to let go all my hedgie collection due to space + time + a few more other things..

really miss having a hedgie.. but I'm not yet ready for one.. too busy with work..

Hoglets crying for mother, I heard this sound when I get my hedgehog and it start make sound at night, on that day my hedgehog didn't eat anything, so I give some mealworm that is pulled their "things" out then my hedgehog only start eat something. Maybe is too young, just 3 week old on that day.

i think my hedgehog is sick
it keep on fall thorn
anyone can recomand any pill o doc for it?

ooh... thats the worst, to see your pet suffer...

Ermmm if i'm not mistaken hedgie in the early stage do change their quill...I'm not quite sure when they usually do that, but this is actually a process of giving some room for new and longer quill to grow...So if ur hedgie is quite young, it is normal process. Still i'm not sure enough until when do they keep on changing new quill...

Then again, u need to inspect the fallen quill also...Do check the end of the quill...If the tip of the quill have kindda a hook shape, then it's ok...But if both end of the quill neither have the hook shape, then maybe there is something wrong..So, if ur hedgie is still young, and the quill tip have a hook shape, there should be no problem...
But if ur still not confident, a visit to the vet should help sort everything out...

like meento mentioned, which i think is most likely the scenario, the hedgehog should be still quilling, hedgehogs don't stop changing quills until they're over 6 months old.

btw, i'm back after one week disconnected from the cyberworld! yay!

Last night took some pic of both ma lil hedgie...Juz adopted billy from empty_reg..


Billy a bit grumpy during pic session...

thank for the reply
will recheck the quill and c.
but the problem is , there is no new quill grow
so now the hedgehog look like going to botak
izzit normal?

really look scary now

DAMN!!!!

i jz got news, my parents said, after spm oni can get...

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when is spm ??? over i mean

Really? Does the quill fell down only at certain part of the body or all over the hedgie...If u say that the hedgie going to look botak, then maybe there is something wrong...do consult with vet dude...

Wow...a few month ahead...is ok, maybe is for the best...
U could focus more on ur study...pokemon always can wait...
