12 baby hedgehogs from 3 mothers born right before September

New lives born here before summer officially ends.

Day 2 – September 1st – Amy listening to ABC song while nursing her hoglets. At the moment in here we have 3 mothers with newborn babies. What a lovely start of September having 3 new arrays of hedgehogs!

 

Day 3 – Sneak peek into this albino mother’s nesting box. She made herself dirty which is a natural behavior to mix scents and avoid predators. We cannot give her a bath in the coming 6 weeks… But it’s all good. Housekeeping by us still on!

 

Vegan buffet for tortoises

Alden the giant tortoise from the Seychelles feeding on wild yam. Just a juvenile now and can weigh over 500 lbs when grown.

Typical afternoon at one corner of JG. All-you-can-eat vegan buffet served every day. Today we’re serving freshly harvested wild yam.
