Les Petits Erizo

Les Petits Erizo is an African pygmy hedgehog breeder based in Quebec, Canada, serving the Eastern Townships near Montreal. Julie Champagne has more than ten years of experience with African pygmy hedgehogs, follows guidelines from the North American Hedgehog Association, and implements regular health checks for all breeding adults.

Her hedgehogs live in clean, well-ventilated enclosures with daily enrichment activities, and each litter receives early handling to promote calm, approachable temperaments. The setup includes quiet resting areas and supervised play zones to ensure both physical health and social comfort.

Clients often note their pets’ balanced personalities and gentle nature, reflecting Champagne’s emphasis on temperament and individualized care. Litters are typically available of colors ranging from cinnamon to sable, with pedigree records provided and ongoing guidance offered long after adoption. Champagne welcomes questions from interested families and shares resources on diet, habitat setup and hedgehog behavior.
