Hedgehogs are back.






Date is wrong on the first video.


From last night.

That's lovely Willpar , they look healthy and good weight from what we can see

Some more clips from last night.

Well they all look very chubby and cheery so that's nice. Winter has been kind.
I thought that in the third vid one was preparing to take up permanent residence

Was certainly making itself at home placi. I think there may be two of them at the moment. One s deffy a male. But for the first time I have got them to eat dry catfood straight from the bag. But it can be soaked for babies as well. It is a junior one for cats between 2-12 months that I got from lidl. The biscuits are small and flat kinda star shape. But hey are all being eaten so that is a good sign.

Wonder whether these newbies don't know any better so they are quite happy to eat dry cat food - first hunger after the winter, and not yet spoiled for tastier foods.
Just one thing though, Willpar: wouldn't Farley's Rusks be more appropriate for babies ?

Now that is going back a bit placi. Farley`s rusk. Made in good ole Plymouth. Used to eat them like biscuits, and always remembered how sweet they were. Probably why I liked them so much.

You could well be right placi. Will see how the season goes. Bound to be a fussy eater or two out there.

Yes Willpar, I recall how sweet they tasted; wasn't aware that they were Plymouth-made . Probably Farley's Rusks were served on Drake's fleet instead of ships-biscuit which is why the Armada didn't win the away leg.

Deffy two hedgehogs last night as they were both together. Eating for England at the moment.

Farleys factory long gone now placi.

Your comments have made me check out Farley's Rusks, Willpar: seems they contained more sugar than a chocolate biscuit, together with loads 'n' loads of salt. Millennium mums wouldn't buy them.
Heinz bought the name and they're now sold as Heinz Rusks.

Now about gripe water .......
