Poppy Seed Pets

Poppy Seed Pets is an African pygmy hedgehog breeder based in Utah, serving northern Utah near Salt Lake City. The operation follows established health screening protocols and has upheld high standards of care for several years under the guidance of owner Tiffany Johnson. Regular participation in local care networks ensures that Poppy Seed Pets stays current on best practices for hedgehog welfare.

Each hedgehog receives daily handling to encourage friendly behavior, alongside balanced meal plans featuring fresh fruits, insects, and quality commercial diet. Animals live in spacious, climate-controlled enclosures designed to mimic natural burrowing conditions and receive regular veterinary evaluations.

From the first weeks after birth, hoglets are socialized with children and household pets in a small home setting, fostering calm temperaments. Poppy Seed Pets provides ongoing care guides and owner support, drawing on a family history of small animal husbandry. This attentive approach helps ensure each pet transitions smoothly into its new home.
