Re: Your Garden Hedgehogs
i think I may have discovered a reason why my hog(s) have stopped visiting. My daughter saw a fox trot through the garden last night. It they(the hogs) have been frightened or even attacked they may choose to look elsewhere for food.

Re: Your Garden Hedgehogs

Re: Your Garden Hedgehogs
Hi JS, the cold they can cope with, however deep snow would be another matter, as it would be hard for them to get around, but those kind of winters are quite rare down south.

Last night had observed a late juvenile go into a feeder that is seldom used. Just looked into it and there is a mother with two juveniles in there. Not really tiny juveniles, so am a bit surprised that they are all still together. While I am delighted you are having some juveniles late in the seas...
