    A friend is neglecting a hedgehog, so I'm picking the hedgehog up within a few weeks because if I dont he'll set it free in the wild to die, so I'm trying to cram in all the research all i can on them.

    My little albino hedgehog was 3 months old but he passed away yesterday from constipation. 2 days before we took him to the vet and all they did was give us antibiotics. He was my first pet ever, and he was so young. I'm just glad I check on him before he passed and saw he was going. I help him in my arms as he passed, so I'm glad I was there for him.

    Stephanie Moreno, All wild hedgehogs carry worms, Healthy hedgehogs 'develop' a resistance (or immunity) to these worms, which means that the hedgehog itself prevents the worm numbers building up to the point at which they become a problem to the hedgehog (so that normally the hedgehog and its parasites will live in harmony.) However, if a hedgehogs immunity is reduced (by, for example, a bad injury, disease, starvation or even the stress of hospitalisation) the worms can then multiply unchecked; this will then result in them getting to such high numbers inside the hedgehog that they DO now cause a problem. And basically common sense is that all Hedgehogs are pulled from the wild, no matter if they were bred because generations before them were pulled from the wild. Hope this clears some things up. :)

    I’m 25 and got my baby girl Ritalin today.. yes I named her the adhd drug because she’s nuts and runs around like an ADHD child. I love her so much she’s a Cinnamon Hedgie. She’s the sweetest and bonded to me immediately. Today we’ve gone to target and Starbucks and a few other places. She loves kids and dogs and other people. When I was 18 I adopted a hedgehog from a pet shop in Clear lake Texas and the hedgie was only maybe a month old. No belly hair and was smaller than my fingers. It didn’t make it. It took me 7 years to emotionally get over it. I got my baby from a hedgehog rescue and I’m so grateful. Love your videos so informative 🤍

    I figured this tip out from a friend! If you already have a wire cage, and you’re having issues with heating or you hedgehogs climbing this could be an option for you! My friend cut pieces of fleece to match the sizes of the walls. She used 2 layers to make it thicker, and attached the fleece to inside of the back wall and the 2 side walls. Then she did the same for the front wall, but only did it halfway up so that it would still have some ventilation. It helped insult her cage, and I’m assuming it would prevent climbing as well! It might be cheaper than buying a whole new cage if you already have a wire one!

    Since I live in Louisiana, it gets really hot (it was like 106 degrees the other day) but when winter comes it can go to negative temperatures were I live, and winter/fall is hunting season so we always have the hand warmers around the house (we have like a bucket full)

    im really set on wanting a hedgehog, I live in Nevada. so its always pretty toasty, Ive owned rodents my whole life but my most recent hamster passed last year and we still have all her stuff that she didnt get to use as she passed just as we got it. we got a HUMONGOUS bin for her that is moveable. im so glad we didnt use it so if I do get a hedgehog they dont smell her. im so in love with hedgehogs rn. thank you for all the tips!

    Hey! I live in England near London we get very hot summers but quite cold winters, I am thinking of getting a Pygmy hedgehog and have never owned them before, So I was wondering if I could use a microwaveable heat pad for them? 💕 The one I use for my guinea pigs is covered in fleece? Also our average room temperature is 25 degrees so is this ok?

    The heat pads are okay but not as actual heating, just as emergency heating. For actual heating you'll want either a space heater or a ceramic heat lamp. (:

    I know this is a late comment, but I thought it might be helpful. Recently I learned that Aspen bedding is not a good option for hedgies, at least where I live. Normally would use aspen bedding, but apparently most are inhabited by mites. Mites are little bugs that make your hedgehog itch, cause irritation and dry skin, and in my case, make their quills fall out. My vet said that about 95% or aspen bedding is inhabited by mites just for people's information.

    My Hedgehogs live in my large bathroom. The tile is easy to clean and they sleep in towels that I change every other day or everyday if I have to. I keep my home at 75 degrees… so far they are 4 years old. I rather clean my tiles every single morning than to clean a cage. If you don’t like cleaning they are not a pet for you… personally I love to clean my white bathroom spotless so cleaning the room every morning is not difficult for me.

    Yes yes yes the heating is extremely important I had a hedge hog who he got to be 4 years old and I live in South Dakota which it gets quite cold here so I would keep a heater on his cage well one year in April a huge ice storm hit like half the state and we were out of power for 3 weeks and no travel any where for the first 4 days in my small now we had red cross but nothing for my little spiky buddy poor guy got very sick and didn't make it

    I am getting my hedgehog the day after tomorrow. I live in a warm climate so we turn the heat up in our 2 months of semi winter to 23 celcius and in the summer keep it at 25 because it get's real hot here. I bought the ceramic heat transmitter anyway, just in case the temperature in the 2 months of winter isn't correct in the cage. Thanks for all the amazing advice. I ordered a cute set of fleece liner, tunnel and snuggle sack. I can't wait for my girl to arrive 😍 I am used to bonding with small animals, but part of my bonding is not picking them up but let them come up my hand themselves. Do you recommend picking the hedgehog up anyway if she doesn't come up herself? Because i understand the contact is vital in socializing them? Xoxox

    I was wanting to get a Midwest and sort of take out all ramps and make two floors and put in bins for bedding etc for two desperate hedgies, but here in winter it gets super cold and I always have a fan in my room since I over heat a lot lol. Would there be a way for me to work around the cold and wire cages? Or I guess my question is: will a c & c cage work better? I’ll probably end up ordering a c and c cage. I’ve heard of putting heat lamps then heat pads under he bedding / tunnels/ fleece. And putting hits etc. would this work in a cold room?

    Hi Tori. Doing some research on my (hopefully) future Hoggo. I'm aware hedgies need to be kept at strict temperatures in their habitats. However, while I recognise certain temperatures could force them to attempt hibernation, I was wondering how long it would take between being out of their habitat and in lower temperatures for that to happen. For instance, were I to take my Hedgie out of his 23C home and play with him for, say, 3 hours in a 14C room, or letting him run around for a few hours, would he be okay with this? How many hours can he be comfortably away from his house safely?

    In Utah, the summers are really hot, and the winters are cold, but all in all my house is pretty warm, and I have already ordered a wire cage, because I am getting my hedgehog in a few weeks. I plan to set up the heating a bit early, so I can get a good feel of how it works before I get my hedgehog. Was a wire cage a good choice? Sorry for the questions. :/
