she does use her wheel, but she never stays on it for more than a minute or so. I have tried bribing her with food, but once she sees the food she just stops running and eats then jumps out of the wheel to commence exploring again -_-
My hedgehog isn't using her wheel!!
I'm getting kind of worried about her amount of exercise. She wakes up around 2AM and I put her in a partitioned off portion of my room that is hedgie-proof but she seems more content to run around, while ignoring her wheel completely. Is there something wrong with her? I'm fairly certain she isn't getting the normal 4 miles of running a night. THanks in advance for any help!

yep you are right! she does use her wheel if i don't take her outside the cage =). I've been letting her roam about for a couple of nights with the wheel outside so she was probably more interested in exploring than just running in place. Thanks for your help!Immortalia said:My hedgie never uses the wheel if I have it out in the playpen with him. He'll only use it when he's in complete darkness and silence inside of his cage. You do have the wheel inside her cage as well right? Because most would rather explore and roam when they're out of their cage. But when they're inside their cage, lights are all off, then it's definate wheel time.
