Aww, mealworms aren't all that nutritional anyways its only a treat, so doesn't matter if they hate them!
Must be something to do with the name Holly😂

All your hogs are so weird compared to mine!

@Ria

Well I asked for one last time when I went to the reptile shop and they literally placed a live baby mouse on the table, it’s eyes weren’t even open! I immediately retracted and said NOPE! 😂 I’ll do the exact same as you, I’ll raise it and never let anything eat it!

And all you guys’ hogs are nicer than mine 😂

 

[Ria]

I am so glad I live in a country where you can only buy them frozen if feeding them to an animal!
I'd be horrified if that happened to me.

Its amazing how different all our hogs are!

Here's the rest of the questions with Prickles' replies!

My fav insect: Literally every kind I've ever tasted (though I did purr the last time my human gave me a cricket, so of course she thinks it's crickets)
My least fav insect: None, insects are soooo delicious!
Favorite playpen activity: Sleeping.
My human is: A cuddler, but at least she lets me sleep. Sometimes.
My human hates when I: Poop on her, hehehehe.
My favorite thing to anoint with: I've only anointed with the neighbor's hand and shrimp. My human wishes I would anoint more.
Human foods I hate: All of them except chicken, salmon, shrimp, and cod liver oil

Haha, my hog is pretty weird. Sometimes I wish she was like a "normal" hedgehog and liked things like cilantro, and mealworms haha. Also, will your hogs actually eat frozen pinkies?!?! It seems like they would be too big for them to eat!

 

[Ria]

Well I defrost them then she eats them. Whole thing bones tail the lot! They aren't that big. Only weigh like 3-5g. But yea she loves them! Gets one, once a month - she's actually getting one tonight.
The can eat fuzzies too.
I know some people who feed frozen (well defrosted) day old chicks which are a bit bigger than the mice.

Holly doesnt like worms, the only worm I can get her to eat are calci worms!

I love prickles favourite play pen activity! Thats so cute!

 

[OddDarkMatter91]

Ughhh imagine the mess though, after the pinkie, like omg. I thought ****roach guts were gross

 

[Ria]

Its not really that bad you see no real evidence that its a mouse, or she ate one. Its just a little pink on the quills!

 

[OddDarkMatter91]

Lol Igor is getting picky. He will literally leave the ****roach’s exoskeleton behind and only eat the guts, or if he feels like it, he’ll just eat the skeleton and leave the guts, so I don’t wanna know what he’ll do with the mouse 😂. But honestly, I don’t wanna clean it up 🤣

 

[Ria]

Holly does that with locusts and crickets sometimes! Its horrible. But she always eat the whole mouse! Thankfully!
