Has anyone ever heard of or bought an African Pygmy Hedgehog from Hedgehog Kingdom (
HEDGEHOG KINGDOM - AFRICAN PYGMY HEDGEHOG BREEDER UK-HEDGEHOGS FOR SALE a very unusual and unique pet! Pygmy hedgehogs ESSEX near LONDON - African pygmy hedgehog for sale, african pygmy hedgehog breeder, african pygmy hedgehog babies, african pygmy h)
If so, I'd really like to know asap as I'm thinking of getting a 12-week old female from them but they've said they wouldn't provide us with a certificate as they haven't registered it with hedgehog association - is this normal as I've heard that they should all come with these?
Is getting them at 12 weeks a problem in regards handling or toilet training? We have seen photos of it and it seems handleable by the photographic evidence.
Also - would people really recommend them as pets? Are they quite low maintenance? What would you suggest we keep it in - I've heard they're quite happy in indoor rabbit hutches?
Feedback asap would be really helpful!
Thanks!
