Most hedgies will play with a wheel but just make sure that it is at least 12 inches in diameter

hedgehog also play wheel? wow...

hello! im going to be getting my hedgehog tomorrow at 3.
i plan to get the cage & stuff before that.
im not not sure what kind of cage to get! help!
i was wondering if it would be alright to get those metal cages? and then have a litter thing on the bottom? or should i get one thats closed off at all sides? (toyogo type of thing) and if i do, how would i clean it?

read first page. there's enough information to answer all your question.

Hey..make sure u take care of tht hedgie good aight ?

u can see my hedgie pad to giv u some ideas..i think its at page 68..page 70 with wheel(vid)..

just brought my hedgie home. he's sitting in a box with a towel over it...
nothing i read could have prepared me for the hissing, the spiking of spikes and the constant pooing! but its still adorable, and i just brought it home, so maybe it takes time...

my kakak is freaked out by it. she thought it was interesting at first but then she tried to touch it, it hissed at her so shes scared now...

the hegehog is sleepinggggg

nice2..the hissing is normal..after a week or two it will stop hissing edi..unless it feels threatened..
hedgie sleeping time ~> 8am - 10pm active hours ~>10pm - 8am..
constant pooing i think cant control..hahaha..
to pet ur hedgie n make it nt scared of u.. just play with it every nite..just hold it while watching tv or while cleaning its pad..let it get used to u..after playing with it..give ur hedgie mealworms as treats..then it will be happy.. b4 u sleep maybe put in its toys..u can refer to pg 1 on how to create a hedgie toy (toilet roll)..pg 68 got vid of hedgie playing with it.. hope it helps..
if u have xtra budget mayb can buy ur hedgie a wheel..

My hedgie doesnt mind me waking him up in the morning when I scoop his poo and pee and add kibbles in his food bowl. But it's kinda hard to play with him in the night. He'll sleep after walking around. So I guess it's better to set your timing right when he's still young. But obviously its better to play with him at night rather than morning during his sleeping hours. Not all hedgies dont mind waking up in the morning.

Young hedgies tend to poo more than adult hedgies. So, just bear with it k? (:

My hedgie doesnt seem to favour live mealworms. So I suggest you to try to get a few first to let your hedgie try it out before buying them in bulk and letting em molt into beetles if your hedgie doesnt like it.

Haha! My mom actually touched his quills from behind and both of them freaked out, badly. I know, my fault for not warning my mom. If you wanna touch it, try letting it smell your fingers, then gently stroke his forehead and the sides. Make sure he can see whr your hand is. I did that and 2 days after that I could hold him in my palm. (:

Wait till you bathe him or balls up, hedgies are the most adorable thing in the world.

btw, i forgot to mention that when i got it, the owner told me it was 2 yrs. old.

is this why its so grumpy

Maybe ur hedgie is not used to u yet...

2 yrs old ? how much u bought it ? or u adopted it ?

anyway..just giv ur hedgie abit more time to get used to u..

picture time!


Golf bolls?

And one of them is mine!!!
Cant wait

Your breed it your self ? My friend's hedgehog is using royal cain cat food, is it that is the best brand to feed Heggie?

yup, haven't tried it yet but i'm planning to change to RC de
Iams not good

Nice hoglets jitshiong. Haha. three?

hi empty_reg..

would like to check with you if this is the rite one for the hedgelogs

hmm abit costly i bought ... LOL

yes it correct but... 2 kg?? how many hedgie u have? as for me.. 2kg is too much! lol normally I bought the small pack that one can last for approx. 1 month.. cuz if bought too big later cannot finish haha

well, my friend rented a house that the owner had moved out of recently, and he said he found a hedgehog in the cage there. so, we call the owner and she says she dont want it anymore, that we can give it away or do whatever we want with it. so i decided to keep it, and i callled her to find out how old it was...

it was free

hi i got one male hedgelog ..

LOL .. tat was the smallest pack i could find ... no choice ..supply running low ..
