Hi, I've had a hedgehog for around 3 years now and recently he will make this weird noise when hes in his sleeping bag. It sounds like a stomach groaning is this normal?

I was hoping someone with a little more experience would answer you but I'll just tell you what my guy does. My hedgie is almost 5 yrs and every so often while sleeping at night I've heard him make sounds that sounds like very young puppies crying. A few other people have had this experience. I can only assume he's dreaming as everything else is fine. I hope this helps a little bit!🤔😊🐷

Hedgehogs can be pretty vocal.

If it sounds like they are in pain then take them to a vet. Otherwise they can purr, chirp/sing when happy. Some people describe chirping as the same noise puppies crying make.

I'm not 100% on the stomach groaning type noise though. But if it doesnt sound like anything is wrong. Or theres no other signs of something being wrong then I wouldnt overlay worry - I may be wrong because as I said I'm mot 100% sure with this noise
