Mommy Fiona and her 2 babies, April 18th 2017
I went to Vigan earlier this afternoon and came home to this!!! Everyone's question is this, did you even know that Fiona is pregnant? Nobody knew.
How would one know if a hedgehog is pregnant? I've got no clue. Besides, as far as we know, Fiona hates Shrek. They even have separate rooms/cages.
My nephew who's visiting from Manila wanted to see them and opening Fiona's cage, they saw these 2 tiny, bitsy hedgehogs beside their mother. Were they even born today? Oh dear!
A hedgehog gestation is normally 35 days.
Only? We've had Fiona and Shrek since only last December. I don't think my niece who bought them even knew that they can have babies this soon. But never mind, we love baby hedgehoggies!
Another thing, a mommy hedgehog can have one or even 11 litters when giving birth. BUT can only be pregnant once a year.
Poor Shrek! He'll be alone from now on...unless we'll get him a mistress?

That's the case with my friend's hedgehogs. They don't want to be together, too. Unfortunately, the other one died. I hope that doesn't happen to yours. And congratulations! When's the baby shower? LOL. Just kidding. Nice post!
i read that the father might eat the litters..as well as pregnancy can only happen once that's why they need to separate :)
Oh. I don't know much about them. It's good you know. Good luck!
am sorry, why are your replies being flagged?
ive just read about those actually :)
Never mind them. No worries. Some people are starving for attention. I'll comment, anyway.

enjoy the coming pics :)
Looking forward to see more! Have a good night!
And you!

Haha I know..I've stressed the mom i think when taking their pics :)
I bet you did :) I wish I could see this with my own eyes

I am a gypsy and move around too much :) I can't attach again. I still have many cats and dogs back in Bali
Lives we lead are interesting to be in only one place :) Will you be going back to Bali??
So cute!
