Suttons Wishes Hedgehogs

Suttons Wishes Hedgehogs specializes in African pygmy hedgehogs in Tallahassee, FL, serving northern Florida. Kelly Steffee has spent several years caring for these small mammals, following established hedgehog care guidelines and arranging regular wellness checks with a local veterinarian.

Each hedgehog is housed in a spacious enclosure with proper bedding, heating, diet, and daily gentle handling to encourage confidence and socialization. Diet consists of high-quality insectivore pellets supplemented with mealworms, occasional insects, and fresh produce for balanced nutrition and enrichment. Hatchlings are raised in a calm home environment where consistent routines, subtle enrichment, and regular interaction support their development. Soft lighting and secure nesting areas help younger hedgehogs adapt gradually without undue stress.

Regular health screenings include weight checks, dental exams, and basic parasite tests to support long-term well-being. Temperament notes and lineage information accompany each hedgehog to ensure transparent breeding practices and help new caretakers understand individual personalities.
