Your Garden Hedgehogs

[nuthatch]

It would be great to have one of their hedgehog tunnels in the garden

[Willpar]

Seen it on the breakfast programme this morning and very interesting. Could have been a bit longer though.

[Placido]

That's brilliant !! Glad it was on TV - dissemination is power !!

Sally Marjoram - doncha luv it ?!?!?

[nuthatch]

Think there's been a visitor - chewed up peanuts but no calling card

[Willpar]

Sounds like you had a visitor nuthatch.

[Willpar]

Seen this one on the small plot this evening.



Could well be one of last years juveniles.

[Placido]

Seed you've got the Dulux out, Willpar
Do you soak your mealies before putting them out ?? They look quite dry ?

[Willpar]

Hi Placi, I rarely soak the mealworms. I do on occasions when the birds are feeding young. But not for hedgehogs. They seem to get on fine with them dry. Leave plenty of water out.

Just went out with some fresh water, opened the gate by front door and there was a hedgehog the other side of it. Good job I had seen it.

[nuthatch]

Funny how they look so cuddly especially with their soft skirt

[Placido]

I've stopped the live mealworms malarky, too much bother now, I'm afraid. Sad, but there you go .......
I soak the birds' breakfast overnight and have been thinking that it's about time I was putting out the hedgies' grub again. Not soaking them sounds fine to me and if Willpar does that then it's good enough for me.
Right then, where's the Crufts bowl .

Note to Self: order another bagful.
