"They also have fleas...
 "
Yes they do but they are Hedgehog fleas and will not jump on you are your pets! Its an old wives tail. Also do not feed them bread n milk as its exremely bad for them, give them dog or cat food but not fish or pork flavour and not the ones in gravy as it gives them the trotts.
OP - if it looks like she is making a nest please stay well clear as if she gives birth and feels threatened she will kill her own young. You will know if there are any babies because they chirp like birds, if you hear this consistently they are in distress, at this point call your local rescue centre. If you want any other advise PM me... I used to run a hedgehog rehabilitation centre. |
