made with love
I have been an active member of the pet hedgehog community since 2007. I began in education and rescue for 5 years while owning my first hedgehog, Inky. I had the opportunity to begin a small breeding program in addition to my rescue work in 2012. I am currently working on the 3rd edition of my book Pet African Hedgehogs - A Complete Guide to Care. My educational background is in Animal Sciences, Sustainability, and Business - a perfect combination with experience with hundreds of hedgehogs, and an intimate familiarity with the struggles of providing a healthy, properly balanced diet. I am so excited to be able to provide our community with a high quality, specialized food for our hedgehogs.
It's about time!

Which Formula to Feed?
Weight Control Formula
Formulated for adult hedgehogs. Ideal for adults who are overweight or at risk of becoming overweight, as well as healthy adults who consume additional foods like insects which provide a good source of fat.
Short answer: Most hedgies 400g and up.
Standard Formula
Formulated for all life stages. Intended for most babies and adults, but especially those that aren't getting / won't eat other supplemental insects / meat / egg etc. If you’re feeding other quality foods like whole insects, consider our Weight Control formula.
Short answer: Most hedgies up to 400g.
High Calorie Formula
If you've used our High Calorie formula in the past, we recommend using our Standard formula! It is also formulated for all life stages.
We don't currently have a time frame for when we'll be able to have more HC produced.
