@shirlsgw The board looks like a high wire for hedgehogs with a diving pool below 😁 🦔 🎪

@lynnych If possible, put out fresh water each night to help keep them hydrated during the coming heatwave

When you plant something for foxy to find it’s soooo easy to win the nightly race to the camera finishing line 👍🦔

@EmsyB12 Head butting and fighting in general can be an attempt to make another hedgehog leave (away from food and/or females). This type of behaviour is probably more common in males.
If possible,having 2 entrances to a feeding station is ideal as it provides a hedgehog a means of escape

[Hedgehog Manor Caretaker @david_j_fleming]

Surely they’re just creeping up to say hello ...... ah, .. nope.
Mean hedgie 😔🦔🦔

Even on a very wet night, whilst the adult had their supper, the cubs still couldn’t resist running about 👀 🦊 👀
