Socialization?


Okay, how about socializing these little guys? I've seen articles on socializing with other animals but it seems that a hedgehog would be a bit more difficult.

Some hedgies respond well to socialization and some do not. I've found that with hedgies who are really unhappy about being handled, just letting them be and talking to them builds trust. Some just seem to prefer you give them space to come to you, rather than vice versa. If they are just a little shy, handling quietly helps build trust. =)
