i think he is just generally a bit of a huffy little chappy. but we seem to be getting into a rhythm and he is much happier to come out an have a little wander after he has been in his snuggle bag for a little while - sometimes hours but im learning to be patient. the only thing that upsets me...

this may seem like an obvious question but is it a good or a bad thing to move things around in the cage when you are doing a big clean? I clean his cage basics every day like food and water dishes, flying saucer and things like litter tray and substrate is spot checks whenever its needed, but...

i have had a nice little giggle reading this thread until i remembered oh yeah i have a little guy too! i havent noticed him humping or having boy time yet... something to look forward to! but im sure your little guy is perfectly fine just found a new hobby? =D

Hey I have the flying saucer. And my little guy loves it so much so that he has reduced a Silent spinner to what I can only describe as screaming cat noise lol. Any ideas on how to make it silent again would be helpful. But I've not noticed any problems with his fit and if his little climbing...

So my little guy is going through his big quilling, he is just over three months old and is well on the way in his quilling i keep finding them all over the place. he seems perfectly healthy still using his flying saucer every night a very healthy appetite and drinking plenty. his poop is normal...

firstly congrats on your new little guy! i have my own little three month old boy who was fantastically calm when i got him quite happily exploring and settling in quite easily at home. yet i have also been bitten quite similar to that. i was holding my little guy no huffs or clicking and he is...

lol thank you that has helped me calm down a bit!

Hey thanks for asking, he is definitely much more comfortable in his cage, loving his flying saucer if the lovely state it is in every morning is anything to go by. he is on a mixture of wet and dry cat food at the minute as when i try without the wet food he doesnt eat much and im slightly...

Hey, my three month old baby boy is well on the way through his quilling but for the past few days I have noticed a hairless lump on his belly it's about the size of a small peanut and about an inch from his bottom in a straight line up his belly. Maybe it's always been there and I'm just being...

Yeah I've tried him with meal worms in his food bowl and he scatters them around his cage but doesn't eat them. I've counted to make sure. It's a bit odd but he just seems to move them around and leave them there. Will try again tonight so hopefully should be able to start making some progress...

yeah i did expect the new cage to be difficult especially having only had him for a week or so but i made sure he had familiar things like his snuggie/food bowl/igloo etc. and on his first night in the cage i sat by quietly and watched him explore he seemed interested in everything even trying...

After getting Brian's new cage set up yesterday morning i spent some time handling him near the cage on the floor with a few things such as his new snuggie he had slept in for two nights and the new igloo which was his and he was absolutely fine a bit huffy as usual at first but he soon calmed...

Yeah I know it's not been a long time enough for him to settle in yet I was just a bit worried about his lack of activity and running. The temperature is definitely warm enough it's the warmest room in the house by a long way as all the central hearing pipes run through it. Having just come in...

Hi, my name is Steff i am 22 and live in the North West of England, i am a graduate of english and currently saving to do my teaching degree and get my own place. Four days ago i brought home a 2 month old baby boy hedgehog, having been talked into it by a sob story, when researching them i was...

I have just (4 days ago) brought home a little 2 month old boy who was lovely tempered and always exploring at his old home even though he was disowned by his own mum and raised by an adopted mummy hedgehog. He seems to be settling in fine, more than happy to sit on me and sleep or have a...
