Advert Description
African Pygmy hedgehogs
Various colours available, I have mostly males ready to go now but I do have the odd female
They are Very tame and have been handled from a week old and love coming out to play - they are very inquisitive and develop their own personalities
I’ve been keeping and breeding these for the best part of 20 years + , I can supply unrelated pairs if required
They are kept in vivariums, sawdust as a substrate with a hide box and a large degu sized wheel
They are fed on James welbeloved cat food - turkey flavour ,this is a high quality food they thrive on I use mealworms and wax worms as a treat
They are drinking from water bottles ( they have no issues with this and it ensures a constant supply of clean drinking water )
I do not use any form of heating with them - I do not have heat lamps / lights or mats - as long as your house is warm enough for you they are fine ( mine have been breeding with no heat in their room for a couple of decades )
Preloved Safety Advice:
Important: Before responding to any pet ad, be sure to read our Pet Buying Checklist and download your copy for free.
Photos: Photos on ads can be misleading. Sellers may temporarily group animals in confined spaces, purely to get a photo. These images don't represent an animal's natural habitat. Always visit the pet in their current home so you can see their housing for yourself.
Research: Always learn everything you can about a species before contacting a seller. This will give you a better idea of what to expect when you go to visit a seller, what questions to ask, and what else you might need to buy.
Payments: Always use a safe payment method that offers you some protection, such as PayPal or Credit Card.
