Baby Hoglets

Springtime brings all manner of baby animals to our door to be hand reared and hedgehogs are no exception.

This little one is one of three being hand reared on milk formula at the moment, in a couple of weeks or so well start to wean off milk onto meat.

This time of year is really hard for us, trying to hold down full time jobs whilst animals turn up, sometimes hourly. Hand rearing them throughout the day and sometimes night is not easy, we have no social life.
