Howdy from Forest Of Dean

hi all,

my name is tash, and I looking to have a hedgehog in my life shortly. I've been fascinated by them for a long time, with only minimal research, I recently found a breeder and have started fully exploring all the possibilities. However I had to recently decline a hoglet let due to moving shortly, but I don't think I can resist any further.

the things that are current setting me back in my research are, suitable daily food,

and a vet with experience in my area so far allI have found is one vet that is interested in hogs but has no experience.

best get on cracking with research

Hello Tash!

I bet you're so excited! I remember getting my very first hoglet, Hercules. I was fit to burst by the time I picked him up. He is one of Helens babies (Nellie). I have 5 now, hehe! I'm going to be getting another one soon hopefully, and I'm jut as excited as I was the first time. x

Viv arrived yesterday, swell considering they say can take up to 10 days, next day! Wooo, construction begins today

And then planning where to put everything - exciting x

Viv is built, mum is workings on liners and have a wheel to collect too.
