Hi hedgehog lovers

Hi everyone.
I run a wildlife hospital & rehabilitation centre in Worcs which I set up in 1984.
We take in & treat all British wildlife, over 4,500 casualties every year.
At the moment we have about 140 hedgehogs in our care, mostly underweight juveniles.
If I can help with any advice on wildlife first aid or rehab, please ask & I will try to help.

Hi Ron
Thanks for the question.
Can you give me a bit more detail about your hog. Where are you keeping him, at what temperature, what are its faeces like (colour, consistency etc)?

It's good to have you have here, it will be great to have your expertise on board!

Hello and welcome to the forum.
Sounds like you know your stuff, will be good to have someone here like you.
Good luck with your Hedgehogs.

Bethany.
