Baby hedgehogs, also know as hoglets, are some of the most fascinating looking creatures. This post preps you for the birthing of your hoglets, as well as how to raise these baby hedgehogs! Before we can dive right in though, Id like to recap on the important steps right before breeding your hedgehogs. You want to of course start with a pair of healthy hedgehogs to pass on good genes. Next, clean the males cage, and remove all toys, obstacles, or anything the female can escape to. Then, monitor them over the next 6-9 days. After this period you want to separate the two Hedgy’s. Never have the male around in the cage when the female is in pre/post birth stages. This can add stress to the female causing her to kill and eat her young!
