Re: Hoglets :p

Well atm I have 8 adult hedgehogs plus these three babies They make good pets but for the right owner. Once they have got used to their owner they are lovely, right little charactars with some really funny habits sometimes.

Can I ask you some questions about them? Really interested in them and there doesnt seem to be very much info online about them.

How do you handle them? Do you have to wear gloves? What do they eat? How long do they live? Are they ok on their own or do they need a pal? Do you keep them indoors or outdoors?

Sorry for all the questions

Re: Hoglets :p

handling - well when they first come they will prob be huffy and curl into a ball, you can pick them up in a blanket or something. I dont, i find over time you get used to it and its just a matter of spreading the weight. When they settle the spikes will mainly lay flat (unless scared by something) so its just like picking any other animal up

feeding - i feed mine cat biscuits daily plus one of the following: egg, chciken, lean mince, carrot/ other veg, fruits (no grapes or raisins), mealworms etc

the lifespan is around 4 yrs

they are solitary, sometimes two girls will get on but not worth the risk most of the time. they can fight. I often have all my girls out in a big playpen but they are supervised

they have to be indoors, unlike wildies they dont hibernate (hibernating is dangerous for them) but room temp is fine

for more detailed info theres a forum for aph people in the uk

Pygmy Hogs UK - African Pygmy Hedgehog Forum

I am on there with the same name
