Bella and Bee

Bella and Bee, African pygmy hedgehogs in Colorado and the Front Range near Denver, have been raising these small companions with attention to health and temperament. With several years of experience, they follow established husbandry guidelines and ensure each hedgehog undergoes wellness checks. Their home-based nursery features climate-controlled habitats enriched with tunnels and hiding spots, and young are socialized from day one to make handling a calm experience. All animals receive a balanced diet formulated for hedgehogs and have access to supervised play time.

Their breeding philosophy centers on gentle handling and owner education, with Bridget Britton drawing on her background in animal studies to share practical care tips. Each litter arrives from parents screened for common conditions, and Bella and Bee provide ongoing support for new owners navigating feeding, enrichment, and habitat setup. Hedgehogs are paired with individually tailored care packages that outline bedding, wheel selection and seasonal adjustments. Prospective owners appreciate the detailed health records and the family’s willingness to answer questions long after adoption.
