My hedgehog is about 4.5+ years old (I am unsure his exact age when I got him 4 years ago) and has recently been sick. Hes gone to the vet for checks and Xrays and we cant find any tumors/infections/obvious concerns. He seems to be doing better after some medicine for inflammation but lost...

Hello! I’ve got about a younger hedgehog , I’m not sure her age but I think it’s around 4-5 months. There is so much information, controversies, forums, etc. about what you should feed your hog. I’ve got her on dry cat food and that’s all. I’m really trying to upgrade her diet though as I’m...

Hello, I have an almost 3 year old female named Stella. About 2-3 months ago I happily rescued a year old male. long story short while cleaning cages I let them play and now I’m seeing some signs of my female Stella being pregnant. Being unplanned I’m really worried that her never having a...

I just picked up my hoggie and noticed her leg is bent funny. Everything is normal and she is eating and last night I heard her running on her wheel. What should I do? I will add some pictures.

I know I just made a post, but I guess I'm desperately clinging to any sort of hope that this isn't uterine cancer and instead a really bad UTI or something. I've been monitoring the amount of blood left underneath Pebbles's wheel since I took her to the vet. I should note the vet was massaging...

Part of my morning routine is checking on Pebbles, making sure she isn't trying to hibernate or that there's no blood in her cage or anything else unusual. So as you can imagine, I was pretty worried when there was food left in her bowl. A quick check of her toys shows that she didn't eat any of...

i have two male hedgehogs, i usually hold them in separate cages to avoid fighting, however i was cleaning their cages and momentarily put them in the same cage (with a divider placed between them). they started fighting and now one of them has a big wound on his side with some quills pulled...

Pebbles's skin has always been on the drier side but lately it seems to be getting worse and worse. I'm fairly certain it's not mites though, just the combined effect of various things. For instance, the humidity in her cage sits at about 20-30% on average but I don't know how to keep that...

With it being winter (A.K.A The Season of Dry Skin) and my hedgie having naturally dry skin, I went out today and got some Aveeno baby wash. It's not the same as everyone recommends- the oatmeal baby shampoo- instead, it's the Aveeno Baby Eczema Care Wash with Colloidal Oatmeal, Fragrance-Free...

After Pebbles's old comfort wheel broke and I got a new one, it's been much louder. It's not squeaky, it's more that it thumps and thuds when she runs like the wheel is loose on the axel. It keeps me up at night and it keeps people sleeping down the hall up, too. I don't have enough saved up for...

Howdy I have bred my male and female 3 times with no luck. I started when they were about 5 months old and they are now about 8.5 months old. Ive tried having them in the females and males cages, different beddings, feed separated always but shar a water bowl. I've tried having them together...
