Please don’t feed mealworms or calciworms to hedgehogs. The calcium and phosphorus ratios are too high and feeding them will cause Metabolic bone disease (“rickets”)

I know most people know this, but there are still people feeding mealworms unaware..I keep coming across this..
Ideally cat or kitten biscuits or a reputable hedgehog food ie Brambles is best to support feed our little hedgehogs..

Also, try and clear up bird feed esp peanuts at night, as they can lodge in hedgehogs mouths..
I had to remove a peanut lodged in one of my babies mouth, Autumn on arrival…she’s fine now 🥰

Also, a little rant… please don’t ask for advice then ignore advice and try to justify letting a potentially ill hedgehog go..
I won’t say more than that or single anyone out but if you ring any rescue and ask for advice.. please take heed. We know what we are talking about🦔
Must people are lovely and want to help hedgehogs when they call me, or why bother to find out the number.. but there is always an odd one…

On a positive, thanks to Chelsea and Caroline for your donations🥰🦔
Thanks to Alison for my lovely T shirt 🥰🥰

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE put some shallow bowls of water out for our wildlife, put them under hedges, shrubs, in the shade, so animals can stay secluded and feel safe, today is going to be ridiculously hot, keep topping them up if you can with fresh cool water 🙏🥰

Work is well underway, and the base will be completed in the next week 😃🎉 Whittakersdiggers have been working hard in the sun 🥵
It seems an impossible task to be hedgehog free while the work is being done, I took in 5 very young ones at the weekend, all from different areas, so I have 7 in care currently 😅

It's going to be amazing when it's completed🎆 🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔 🙌🥰
