Florida Hedgehogs (formerly Hood Petz)

Florida Hedgehogs (formerly Hood Petz) is an African pygmy hedgehog breeder in Florida’s coastal region near Tampa. Its breeding program follows recommended health-screening protocols including regular wellness exams and genetic assessments to support strong, well-adjusted litters.

Hedgehogs live in spacious climate-controlled enclosures enriched with tunnels, wheels and natural bedding to encourage both physical activity and mental stimulation. Amy Hood emphasizes daily gentle handling and socialization routines so young hedgehogs become comfortable around people and adapt smoothly to new home environments. Upcoming litters receive close observation in a home-based nursery where individualized care and early weaning practices prepare each animal for a healthy start.

Recent visits highlight Hood’s clear guidance on habitat setup, nutrition plans and ongoing wellness monitoring that help new owners feel confident. Drawing on several years of hands-on experience, Hood stays current with recommendations from small-animal care resources and peer networks. Follow-up support on feeding, exercise opportunities and health check reminders is available to ensure a smooth transition into each hedgehog’s new home.
