Gunner's Quills Hedgehogs

Gunner’s Quills Hedgehogs, African pygmy hedgehogs, Oklahoma City, OK, is a family-run operation led by Mackensie Shappley nestled in the central plains. With more than a decade of selective breeding, it holds active memberships in regional small animal associations and follows recommended health and temperament testing protocols. Each hog is raised in clean, temperature-controlled enclosures that mimic natural habitats and receives daily socialization sessions to build trust and curiosity.

Their breeding philosophy prioritizes gentle handling from the first week, ensuring shy individuals thrive alongside more outgoing siblings. Litter sizes typically range from four to six, and offspring mature under the watchful eye of dedicated caregivers. Regular veterinary partnerships and detailed record-keeping underscore a commitment to long-term well-being. Several juveniles have been invited to local wildlife education demonstrations, reflecting their accustomed calm around people. Prospective owners receive guidance on habitat setup and ongoing support.
