@angelno329 9 лет назад

i just bought a c&c cage! Im so ready to get it in the mail. I hope my new hedgie will appreciate it since he was living in a plastic tub his whole life (sad right?) I hate how little space people give their pets to live in.

@beepopp7306 5 лет назад

@Deathkill4115 10 лет назад

Thnx I really want a hedgehog and this is a perfect resource

@briannagrange6599 7 лет назад

For the food pellets you can also use cat food high in protein and low in fat and it's very cheap

@orangefuzz99 10 лет назад

Only one hedgehog has ever farted and that's how the universe was created

@brandontruman2986 7 лет назад

For the hideaway could you easily use a fleece or wool beanie as a cheaper alternative

@mackcheeseplate389 7 лет назад

I got my hedgehog so excited

@kon6157 5 лет назад

This is a great video. The only thing is hedgehogs don’t like big spaces to run around, it makes them uncomfortable. If you want a big cage for them you just need to fill it with lots of things. That might be something to research. 💜

@sorchaoconnor7026 11 лет назад

Thank you so much!! That's perfect, I will put it under the wheel and gradually try and train the little guy... He will only be 8 weeks so I understand he may have some difficulty at the beginning but that is fine! I am over the moon, I cannot wait! Thanks!

@crafthouseanimationstudios5489 4 года назад

Our hedgehog used to have bottles instead of bowls. He liked his bottle and after I gave him a chance to used bowls he still seemed to like his bottle much much more. But then after a long time for keeping the bowls in (just in case) he actually started using them and never used the bottle again. He also used to put his paws on his food bowl, and the first time he used the bowl he tipped it over. After that he never did it again. Bowls can be much more comfortable for hedgehogs to use, especially as they are more natural and less straining for their neck. If you want to go more in-depth in this or just learn countless other reasons bowls can be beneficial reference “ Victoria Rachel” (that’s the channel name) Anyway watch her video “Bowls vs. Bottles”

@MysticSoul19 3 года назад

FYI some hamsters actually need more space then a hedgehog because they explore....so a biggest hamster cage should be fine. Hedgehogs like small spaces or their caged to be filled so they can feel safe

@OxbSkillFit78 10 лет назад

I love your voice!

@JillianBrody 9 лет назад

And also I learned that fruits and stuff are good for them? I looked at many websites and videos

@Lineria1 11 лет назад

Yup Thanks! I just love this type of cage havent seen it around (ready made) but I am sure I would be able to build it since I can find all the materials seperately. I do not live in the US and these in EU are not so popular xD! I just love that you can change the shape of it so the hedgie doesnt get bored or you can also make it bigger or whatever!

@abisanimals6459 7 лет назад

I may be getting a hedgie soon, and I was wondering if the Midwest cage would be suitable for her? It is larger than normal pet store cages and I think it would be a good cage.

@maddielyon4706 6 лет назад

I live on Long Island we have a lot of a variety of weather... do I need a lamp during the winter

@wesleyjoyner5419 10 лет назад

Would it be possible to cut down on the dustiness of some of the beddings (like Care Fresh or Aspen shavings) by sifting them in a flour sifter before they go into the cage?

@thornblack9589 7 лет назад

about hibernation what if the room you have your hedgehog is in your bedroom and you have a cooler or cold room and it can't be fixed. would you buy two heating lamps for day and night

@CarmenSchmitt36 8 лет назад

i love them

@tearneyconnell2080 8 лет назад

i love your hedgehogs nose it is so cute

@zayap2773 10 лет назад

Don't hedgehogs eat live insects in the wild?

@plinkleplonk 10 лет назад

Yup! Meal worms, wax worms and crickets should be given in moderation... More like a treat than a full diet :) x

@Cotten-ch3fh 6 лет назад

I have a question about the wheel. Do u have to keep the wheel in the enclosure all the time because I read that u should just have it out during playtime

@Josh-lz3dr 3 года назад

You make great video's. In what room do you keep your hedgehog? :) I hope you're still actief :)

@amandabren2887 10 лет назад

Can you please post a link of where you can get the beddings and the brand please?

@camillecooper1312 4 года назад

I have two questions for If I get the cage that can be turned into different shapes and is open on the top: 1- can a hedgehog climb out of the cadge 2- What do you have at the bottom of the cage under everything so that the bedding/shavings don't get everywhere and the ground doesn't get dirty.

@graceocasio6787 2 месяца назад

Hi, can you tell me where you got the plastic that you have around the cage? , please and thank you

@pattir7744 10 лет назад

I just got a c & c cage with coroplast going 6 inches up each side. I was told that the hedgie can get past the coro and climb over the top. Do you think this is true? Pls HELP. I'm getting him next week. Thank you.

@elliekara1947 8 лет назад

is it okay to use a blanket instead of the bedding she uses or not? (the eco and boxo bedding)

@dawngiffin8692 8 лет назад

According to our exotic vet, the best thing to feed hedgies is Mazuri Insectivore Diet along with some insects such as mealworms. A little bit of fresh raspberry, blueberry, or blackberry is also good.

@skaterhater123456789 11 лет назад

I read on hedgehog central that many hedgehog owners prefer fleece liners for bedding. What is your opinion on fleece for bedding ? I might go with fleece do to the simplicity of cleaning it and I do not have to constantly buy shavings. But I suppose you like shaving because it allows the hedgehog to tunnel, correct?
