site relacionamento divorciados Zoe the Hedgehog was busy overnight taking loads of leaves into her box. She has been in one box in the garden for about a month, this last week she decided to move to a different one. Thankfully this box also has a camera in it. Hopefully she will now settle down and hibernate. Zoe is the hedgehog Martin Hughes-Games was holding explaining about their spines on Autumnwatch. She is the last of the hedgehogs to go into hibernation, haven't seen another hog for a week now.
Here's a picture from inside the box of the finished article, she is in there honest. Looks nice and snug.
Hi
Only seeing 1 hedgehog every 2 nights or so varying from early evening Saturday (17.20), Monday (20.30) and Wednesday (22.00)
Been looking Thursday and tonight and up to now no sign.
No hedgehog has taken up residence in the box
Will keep leaving food and check cameras every day
I only have Zoe now. The other one that was hanging around was last seen on Sunday. Think this cold snap has sent most them into hibernation now. Let me know if you see anymore

Hedgehog came in at 00.30 this morning and ate the mealworms left out for them.
Stayed eating , drinking water and wandering around the garden for almost a hour leaving at 01.26.
We are presuming this is the same solitary hedgehog that we last saw on Wednesday night.
Only hope he or she is big enough to hibernate.
If you see it when you are awake can you weigh it just to check. Hopefully will be fine. Cold snap coming up so I reckon that will send the last few to sleep.
If we have a visit tonight , will weigh and if under 650g will keep him indoors overnight and maybe you could look tomorrow
That would be great, thanks 🙂

Checked out cameras from last night
No sign of hedgehog
It went very cold though
Will keep looking every night and leaving food
That’s good news I guess! Real cold snap coming so hopefully they are all tucked up now.
Hi Duncan
After a spell of not seeing any hedgehogs we were surprised and shocked when reviewing the camera footage this morning to see that we had a visit at 05.57am
It stayed until 06.13am then went under the gate and vanished.
I wish it had come out sooner so that we could weigh it.
Will keep looking tonight
Do you think it could be Zoe??
It is strange you saw one the same night as Zoe left, I suppose it is possible. She normally goes in the woods near us but I have no idea where she went.!
No sign of hedgehog last night ?
No, Zoe seems to have gone. After 2 months in the box in the back garden!
Hedgehog came in at 22.53 looking for food left at 23.00 after drinking water
We have put more mealworm out hoping for it to return although there were plenty of peanuts and bird food on front lawn.
Will update you when we check cameras in the morning.
Blimey, it has been quite mild, I’ve heard reports from round the country of hogs appearing. Could be just moving.
Hedgehog didn’t return last night?
Will leave mealworms out tonight and see if it returns
Ok. I have my eyes peeled on my monitors too!
Very strange that there was no sign of hedgehog last night considering that it is still mild
They are so unpredictable
Hi Duncan,
Hedgehog came in tonight at 21.38 and left at 22.48
I have a short video of it and can send it to you if you wish but will require your email address
