This is the only litter than I have had from Daisy - her second pairing although successful and she had a litter, something was wrong when i saw her skulking in the corner of her cage - lifted her up and she had what was initially thought to be a prolapse after giving birth - turned out it was actually the remains of a baby that she was trying to pass - Daisy was immediately retired as I could not put her through another pregnancy incase it happend again - Daisy is my pampered pet and she is the only mum who never built as nest or gave me any indication she had had her litter and the only one who I have been able to see right from birth.

Although Daisy gave birth the babies were all born riddled with infection as one of Daisy's babies had partially disintegrated in her womb and we nearly lost her - Daisy is retired as I will not risk breeding from her again.

Dougal is beautiful ...x Helen that little one with the dark feet face and legs but yellow quills what colour did that one turn out its gawjusss .

She was classed as a brown Lou

Wow that has suprised me i wouldnt have thought a brown .x

Oh, you've raised such beautiful babies. I'm so sorry about Tuppance. That post made me cry. I'm so sorry for your loss. It must be so rewarding and so difficult to breed hedgies. I don't know if I could do it.

Still makes me cry but she had a wonderful life whilst she was with us and her memory lives on in the portraits and in the spring, her new russian snowdrops.

It is very rewarding to breed them and also a priviledge, the hardest part is litter losses and even though I don't like it, I have to accept that as i am a breeder - my babies give me loads of pleasure and this counteracts the litter loss if that makes sense.

Hopefully I shall have new babies in the next few weeks

Lovely babies, Dougal is gorgeous xx

Helen you are a star for doing this thread!! Its so great of you to be so honest about everything! specially with the details of destroyed litters, would definitely make me think twice if I evert got the guts to breed!

I was so sad to read the story of Tuppence, but it just shows how much you love and care for your hoggies

thanks so much for sharing this with us all
