Hedgehog Haven

As the weather is starting to warm up hedgehogs will be emerging from hibernation, please look out for them as they will be very hungry and thirsty over the next couple of weeks I will be contacting finders to come and collect their hogs to release back into the wild, it’s advised that males are released first and a dry nest box in the garden is very handy as it provides shelter from the elements
