Understanding Hedgehog Dietary Needs
High Protein:
Hedgehogs are insectivores, consuming a diet primarily of insects to provide them with the needed proteins. Protein is essential for hedgehogs' bodily functions, including growth, tissue repair, and enzyme synthesis. They can get it from the dry calciworm, meat, and bone meat.
Moderate Fat:
Fats provide a concentrated energy source for hedgehogs and are vital for maintaining healthy skin and fur. Hedgehog food, available at Kennedy Wild has been carefully selected with low-fat content to ensure their fit health and avoid obesity.
Fiber:
As an alternative to fat, fibre is one of the most important dietary constituents for Hedgehog. It plays a crucial role in promoting a healthy gut. Oats and flaked maize in our mix wild-food feed are the best sources for getting fiber for them.
Reasonable Vitamins and Minerals:
A range of vitamins, including A, D, E, and B-complex, are essential for the skin, bone health, and metabolic function of hedgehogs. Minerals like Sodium regulate their fluid balance and blood pressure, crucial for various bodily functions, and iron helps with oxygen transport and red blood cell production.
Hedgehog Feeding Tips
- Establish a regular feeding schedule for your hedgehog to help regulate their eating habits.
- Scattering food in various spots within the enclosure encourages natural foraging behaviour in hedgehogs, reducing competition and territorial aggression while promoting mental stimulation and physical activity.
- Ensure proper portion control by offering measured amounts of food appropriate for their size and activity level.
- Always provide it with fresh, clean water in a shallow dish or a water bottle. Change the water daily to ensure its freshness, and monitor your hedgehog's water intake to ensure they remain hydrated.
- Steer clear of chocolate, candy, nuts, seeds, and high-fat dairy products. Feeding your hedgehog sugary or excessively fatty foods can lead to several health issues.
- Regularly cleaning food and dishes with hot, soapy water helps prevent bacterial growth, ensuring proper health and hygiene.
