Different hedgehogs in the box.

Does anyone know if different hedgehogs use the same house/box.I check (very carefully) to see if anyone is in residence in the mornings and sometimes it seems to be a big hedgehog and sometimes a small one,some days it is empty.

Also do the boxes need cleaning and restocking with nesting material?

It's not always easy to hug a hedgehog.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't.

  • Hedgehogs can travel up to 2 miles during the night and they have various places where they spend the day sleeping. So any one hedgehog will not think of your box as its special home - there could be loads using it over a period of days.

    It probably would be a good idea to clean it out now and again. Hope this helps Rachel
