Our Little Ark @ Pokey Mom's Hedgehogs

Our Little Ark @ Pokey Mom’s Hedgehogs, African pygmy hedgehogs in Arkansas, serves central Arkansas near Little Rock. Lilian Browne has raised hedgehogs for several years and ensures each animal receives regular veterinary checkups, parasite screenings and dietary assessments to track healthy growth. She works closely with a local exotic animal veterinarian for routine dental exams, preventive care and ongoing guidance on best husbandry practices.

All hedgehogs are housed in climate-controlled enclosures on her family farm where they adapt to gentle handling and daily socialization. Each habitat features exercise wheels, nesting boxes and supervised playtime to encourage natural behaviors.

Lilian’s focus on early socialization aims to promote calm temperaments, and many families praise the relaxed nature of these small pets. Adoptive owners report these hedgehogs settle smoothly into home environments and established routines. The small-scale setting allows her to attend to individual needs and support lifelong well-being.
