Gorgeous reverse pinto girl & split face girl, 1 year old
PLEASE NOTE THIS HEDGIES ARE PET ONLY For sale is my beautiful pearl. Due to having to cut down on my herd I am searching for the VERY BEST home for her. This home must be pet only as she has never had babies and is over a year old. She's a friendly inquisitive and kind hedgehog. You will have to offer an A * home as I'm still not wanting to sell her. But she will have a great life with someone as an only hog or with a small herd. She can be handled by my daughter. *PRICE LOWER BUT STILL LOOKING FOR AN "a" STAR HOME! (Which I can help you with. *) Also a split face brown pinto, the same age. Sofia is a beautiful girl and the decision to rehome my girls has been difficult. But I need to reduce my hogs. Looking for a home where they will be lavished with attention! A bit about me and what I do please read below. ?I like to have knowledgable, willing to learn and eventually prepared new mummies and daddies for my babies. Which is what I am here to help with. We all started off the same way, so you don't have to be an expert straight away (it took me about four months, learning more and more every day,like coping in winter, I certainly don't expect you to be an expert straight away. Instead I offer my guidance and personal experience to get you ready to own. In an understanding, supportive way and always. without judgement. ?THE HOGS I BREED FROM ARE MY OWN, chosen mainly for their placid personalities and of course their beauty (I may be biased ??), over six and a half months old, to males of the same age. If not older (boys can keep going. Unlike girlies. My breeding hogs are ALL Registered with the club reg. So your hog will come with a cert,showing lineage and having all hogs registered in the uk would help us track down lines that may be responsible for terrible hoggy illnesses like WHS. Registering is very important, even if you don't buy from me, take my advice and insist that ALL your hogs are registered. If a breeder doesn't register, what are they hiding? It could be inbreeding, poor ethics and not giving mums full six month break after babies. So please be careful. ?BUY FROM SOMEONE HAPPY TO SHOW YOU HOGLETS PARENTS, SHOW YOU THEIR HOG ROOM (unless they have nesting females, in which case, it can be tricky) AND SET UPS (with correct equipment, heating, clean, with water and food available. Vivariums a minimum of 3 ft and all hogs over 12 weeks must have a wheel, it's a major part of hoggy life, they need to run and will do so all night. Pregnant females have their wheels removed before the due date for safety). ?a breeder should never photograph, touch, hold a hoglet under 2 weeks. Mum can turn very quickly. Even though people claim their hogs don't mind, the first 2 weeks are crucial and mum needs to adjust to motherhood in peace. Without nest poking. The other reason for this is, different smells can make mum reject the babies. Or worse still destroy them. Please don't buy from people who put lives at risk for complete selfishness. ? ALSO No barred cages at all (A RESCUE CLIMBED HAVING NEVER DONE SO BEFORE AND SHE WAS FOUND HANGING. LUCKILY SHE WAS SAVED IN TIME.) ?for that reason. I will NOT sell until the set up is safe and correct for your hoglet.?. ?use a breeder that is happy to show you their herd, that will sit and let you handle a hog for a while to get used to the noises and the spikes (so many hogs come to the rescue because they had no idea how to cope with the noises, the jumps and clicks. People then rehome. Because they don't fully understand why they do it. People lose their confidence quickly and rehomes become inevitable. The unethical breeder hands over a hog at the front door or literally rushes you out of the door, giving you no time. All good breeders provide a care sheet. Including what they can and can't eat (very important), how to cope with hibernation attempts (which is fatal for an aph). Alongside the care sheet, a contract which means the breeder cares about all eventualities, asking you to sign a contract, ensures that the hoglet can go back to the breeder if needed. Also the owner agrees to NOT breed WITHOUT WRITTEN PERMISSION. I am a hobby breeder, because if my illness. I'm home a lot. Which means all my hoglets get lots of cuddles and get to know their foods, enjoy their live food. I'm now taking details from people who would like to join a waiting list, all my hoglets come with a care package, including blankets that smell of home, 500g of hungry hogs APH food (should last about six weeks). The best food ever that all my herd haVe, Su Hampton makes the food and uses selected good quality biscuits, combining them all to get the right percentages. She also adds dried bugs and very fine fruit and veg.) The food my hoglets are weaned onto is the high fat selection from Su (who also offers, low fat, standard and specialists for hogs with digestive illnesses) If you have any further questions I'm always happy to answer,best I can. For any new owners, I'm happy for you to come and meet me and herd. With no commitment to buy, but just to handle hogs; see their grubby wheels and figure out if they are for you:) With all the info you can provide, I will be able to support you fully and ensure any unknown or incorrect ways of caring for a hog, is put carefully correct. Please don't let this daunt you, I'm here to support you and ensure my hogs get the best care (it Can be hard knowing what's right and wrong. I would totally avoid Google as the info is usually wrong! I'm completely happy to answer any questions you have. Day or night. Completely free from judgment. No question is ever stupid, in fact. The opposite. Asking lots of questions is very reassuring to breeders and fosters for the rescue. All my babies come with a lifetime of care. You'll be given my personal numbers and can come to me anytime. It's important to have support as it can be daunting. Because of my work with the rescue,I have a good base of knowledge of health problems, basic first aid (not full on accidents which always must be a visit to the vet) hibernation, quilling, bonding methods, ideas for play times, grumpy hogs, picky eaters, biters, trimming nails and bathing. I can also offer holiday boarding for hoglets born to my herd. For small fee. LASTLY! My aim to you...a socialable, fully weaned, healthy hoglet and parents who feel confident and happy when they collect their bundle of joy. My promise to you...when you reserve a hoglet, you will get regular updates, photos and videos welcome visits when the hoglets are old enough. With mummy hog in mind. Thanks. Read More
