What can you feed a baby hedgehog?
You need to ask the breeder you got the hoglet from what they fed the hoglet prior to purchase. Once they tell you, you should feed them that brand of kibble until they adjust to their new environment. Give them as much as they want to eat at night; but monitor how much they eat so you can tell if there's a problem. Once you've given them a month or two to settle in, you can switch to a different food if you wish. However, make sure it's a great quality food (no by-products), and that it has around 30% protein and 15% or less fat.
What is a baby hedge hog called?
A baby hedgehog is called a "hoglet." When they are born, hoglets are very small, blind, and covered in soft quills. They rely on their mother for warmth and nourishment until they grow and develop the ability to fend for themselves. As they mature, they will eventually develop the characteristic spiky coat of an adult hedgehog.

Could a hedgehog cost 10?
No. Straight from the breeder, a properly bred, cared for, and socialized hoglet (baby) will cost $150 - $400 in the American market. Rehomed hedgehogs typically cost around $75 - $100, though they usually do not make as good of a pet without a lot of work, since the original owner has lost interest in them and stopped properly socializing them, or the hedgehog has already bonded to the original owner.
Is there an animal shelter on Knoxville that sells hedgehogs?
Animal shelters typically never have hedgehogs, as they are unequipped to take care of exotic animals. If you are wanting to rescue a hedgehog, check the links below. However, if you are a first time owner, I HIGHLY suggest buying a baby (hoglet) from a breeder, as first time owners are not prepared nor ready in any way to deal with a rescued hedgehog. I know from personal experience!
How old do hedgehogs get in the wild?
typically 6-8 weeks. unless the hoglet is weak or a sickling. it may vary. the sow or mother hedgehog abandons her pups around six weeks after birth. and the pups learn to live in the wild alone. hope that helped!
