they also do it with things they really like, like my romance perfume...lua thinks she needs to wear some too so she always annoints with it-always! and if the bottle is sitting out and she can get to it, she looooooves to lick it and annoint with it too.

a lot of research was shown that annointing is actually developed from some type of self protection. when observed in the wild, hedgis would attack and kill posionous frogs and go straight for their poison glands and then self-annoint with the poison. it wold seem that the theory is that if there is a strong smeel or odor then the camo themselves with it in order to not be so obvious as something that does not belong.

there is still a lot about hedgies that non one seems to know and is still being found out.

My new babies!

Okay, here they are! The albino hedgehog is Piglet, and the darker one is Shned, and the in-between one doesn't really have a name yet.. I've just been calling him Bob.

For some reason they are all a little bit skinny. The guy I bought them from said they are about four months old. Shned is the skinniest, but since I got him he's been eating a little more each day. For some reason Piglet looks like he's two different colours in those two pictures, but I'm pretty sure he's pure albino. I'm not very good at determining colours. Anyone want to take a guess on Shned? I know his nose is liver coloured and his skin is pink. His quills are a light caramel colour. I've never met a hedgehog quite like Shned. He seems kind of weird. Sometimes he will just sit out in the open and stare at nothing, then he will suddenly take off.
