Hi, I am looking to sell a 3 year old female African pygmy hedgehog to someone who can give her the best home. She needs a home with no dogs or cats. She has a 5 by 5 foot enclosure and it is necessary that she has a minimum that much space.
Basic care:
1. Hedgehogs are nocturnal and solitary creatures, so she primarily is only awake in the night. Her favorite activity is running on her wheel. She also poops and pees on her wheel while running, so her wheel must be cleaned daily.
2. Her nails are currently extremely overgrown and it is important that her new owner addresses the situation right away. Typical cat nail clippers or small human nail clippers are good. For future nail maintenance, they must be cut at least once a month.
3. Her skin and ears are sensitive, and she requires gentle oils and baths regularly.
Her fee is $600 and will include all necessary supplies:
- [ ] large enclosure
- [ ] running wheel
- [ ] 2 washable water resistant padded blankets
- [ ] several hidey-holes
- [ ] 2 tunnels
- [ ] vitamin E oil
- [ ] approximately 2 weeks of food
- [ ] large heating lamp
The new owner must supply a minimum of two shallow and heavy ceramic or glass bowls for food and water and nail clippers.
