I wasn't sure if it was love or gluttony. :shrug: :)

I am still trying to decide whether it is two or three Hogs visiting each night. The trail cam again showed two arriving and leaving before midnight and a visit from a single about 2.30am. Whether the later one is one of the two earlier ones it is difficult to discern as they all look similar in black and white. :shrug:

Well after saying we only have one hedgehog, 2 are caught on the trail cam the 1st one is the new one and rather larger than the one we have had over winter in the hedgehog house so maybe a female.

I had a nice conversation with my Postie today. He had to knock my door to get me to take my latest delivery of Dried Mealworms. He remarked about the smell coming from the said package and wondered what he was delivering. I put him straight on the matter and told him I was feeding hedgehogs with them. His brow furrowed and he gave me the kind of look you get when someone thinks you're pulling their leg :) He told me he lived in a rural location and had seen a Hog from time to time but had never fed them. I explained that Hogs liked mealworms and did them no harm and we parted company with him vowing to give them a try. He was a little concerned that birds would eat them instead of the intended Hog But I assured him it didn't matter who ate them. :shake:
