Operation Hedgehog Is A Success (So Far) :)
17 Answers
On the basis of seeing a hedgehog once last year I have spent a small fortune on hedgehog stuff - and it’s paid off! He/she is visiting at least three times a night and has been consistent at visiting about 7.30 to fill his face and have a mouch about. We’ve even got video of him washing his face in his water bowl (or that’s what it looks like).

Wait til he leaves you a present - in his food dish!
Other things to watch out for on the video is when he has an itch - those back legs have some reach!, eating a windfall plumb, eating melon slices (there is a fruit they are not suposed to eat - can't remember if its mango, grapefruit or watermelon), or even eating a mouse!
I saw mine for 2 days at the start of March - then the temperature dropped - he usually comes back when the clocks change.

They are my favourite animal (after our cat) and I am so chuffed that he’s visiting. We have to sort the back fence out and we’ve told the man that lives there that we are going to leave a (big) gap for him to get in and out. Hopefully he’ll bring his mates round too (or turn out to be a she and have babies - squeal!!).
When I was a kid (about 10) I found an injured hedgehog who I took home. She had babies but she died and all of the babies died except one - my mother fed it every two hours with a pipette (I think she even took it to work with her) but it didn’t survive more than a couple of days. I’ve loved them ever since.
Aldi/Asda/Lidl dog food (not fish or gravy) - I go for the ones in Aldi that are in the small trays so not in jelly (if it was a can sometimes there's more jelly than meat.)
I also have the seed mix and pellets from Arkwildlife (see my earlier post) - they are cheaper than Birdfood.
Dish of water NOT milk. NO bread.
