a nice lady brought them into where i work, she'd found dead mum and 3 very hungry and very cold little babies!
i'm syringe feeding them every 2-3 hours but they're just starting to lap at some milk from a saucer  |

| yeah they're on a mix of Hills a/d cat/dog food and goats milk, they'll take about 2.5-5mls every few hours by syringe but i can't wait for them to use the saucer lol |

Awwww I love hedgehogs! I found one out in the daytime just curled up on the front lawn where I used to live, so there was obviously something wrong with him. I donned some garden gloves (not for the spines obviously... for the fleas and ticks!) and popped him in one of the spare ferret hutches. There was a hedgehog rescue nearby who I rang and they came to pick him up. He really was infested with fleas and ticks... you could see the fleas marching about! It's making me itch just thinking about it. Quite common for hedgehogs though unfortunately  . He looked quite aenimic from all the parasites the poor little hog.
Those three baby hoglets look nice and plump and healthy! It'll be great when they start troughing the food down from a bowl. When they are old enough they'll love you forever if you give them mealworms hehehe. |

probably not till next srping, they're way too small to hibernate so they'll live in a rabbit hutch outside when they're a bit bigger and don't need feeding every 3 hours
'waving good' bye spor........ what do you mean?? they can't.......... go!! |
