Carolina Quillery

Carolina Quillery is an African pygmy hedgehog breeder in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving the Piedmont region. It follows recommended health screenings and maintains a small, monitored breeding group under controlled conditions with attention to genetic diversity. Each litter is tracked from birth with detailed records on parentage and early development milestones shared with prospective owners. Routine weight checks and parasite screenings are performed under veterinary guidance to ensure early detection of health concerns.

Hedgehogs live in roomy, ventilated habitats equipped with climbing structures and hideaways, and are handled daily to support calm social behavior. Chancy Eckert draws on experience in exotic animal care to offer personalized adoption support and thorough setup guidance. Diet includes high-quality hedgehog pellets supplemented with live mealworms, fresh fruits, and vegetables based on veterinarian advice to ensure balanced nutrition. Owners note the calm temperament of their hoglets and appreciate the breeder’s ongoing check-ins as animals settle into new homes.
