FAQs

How much food should I offer?

Offer a small handful of food, about 1-2 tablespoons, as a supplement to their natural diet. Adjust the amount based on how much the hedgehogs consume and the availability of natural food sources.

Can I feed this food to baby hedgehogs?

While it can be offered, it's best to consult with a wildlife rehabilitator or veterinarian for specific guidance on feeding baby hedgehogs.

Where should I place the food?

Place the food in a sheltered spot in your garden, such as under a bush or in a hedgehog house, away from direct sunlight and rain.

How often should I provide food?

Offer food daily or every other day, especially during the breeding season (April/May) and during periods of cold weather when natural food is scarce. However, ensure that hedgehogs are still foraging for natural foods.

How long does the food last after opening?

Once opened, the food should be consumed within a reasonable timeframe, typically a few weeks to maintain freshness and nutritional value. Always reseal the bag properly after each use.

Is this food suitable for all types of hedgehogs?

Yes, it is suitable for European hedgehogs. Always observe the hedgehogs and adjust the feeding accordingly.

How should I store the food?

Store the food in a cool, dry place, sealed in its original packaging or an airtight container, to maintain its freshness and prevent spoilage.

Troubleshooting

Hedgehogs are not eating the food.

Ensure the food is fresh and dry. Try offering it in a different location or at a different time of day. Ensure the food is not exposed to rain.

The food attracts ants or other unwanted insects.

Reduce the amount of food offered. Clean up any uneaten food promptly. Consider using an ant-resistant feeding station.
