Prickle Farms Hedgehogs

Prickle Farms Hedgehogs is an African pygmy hedgehog breeder based in Utah, serving Northern Utah and the Wasatch Front near Salt Lake City. Owner Stephanie Keller is a longtime hedgehog enthusiast with over eight years of experience, a member of the North American Hedgehog Association, and follows a health-testing protocol for common genetic conditions. Breeding stock live in spacious, climate-controlled, air-filtered habitats and each litter receives daily gentle handling sessions to support early socialization. Diets combine high-quality insectivore pellets, live mealworms, and occasional dried insects for proper nutrition at each growth stage.

Seasonal enrichment programs rotate toys, tunnels, and supervised playtime to encourage natural behaviors. Keller ensures that adopters receive care guides reflecting the latest husbandry recommendations. The small-scale, family-run setup allows Keller to form close bonds with each hedgehog and prospective adopters. Each hedgehog leaves with documentation of health clearances and a personalized care summary.
