Whippoorwill Creek Farm

Whippoorwill Creek Farm, African pygmy hedgehogs, Jackson, MS, is a small family operation in the Piney Woods region. The farm has been raising hedgehogs for several years and participates in local breeder meetups, with a focus on health screening and routine veterinary exams following recommendations of hedgehog associations. Animals are housed in climate-controlled enclosures and socialized daily to encourage gentle handling and curiosity. Emily Lambert follows a holistic nutrition plan, balancing feeds with fresh vegetables and offering enrichment activities from tunnels to supervised floor time, while carefully selecting breeding pairs for gentle temperaments.

Several families mention thoughtful introductions and clear communication from the breeder. Every hedgehog leaves with a detailed care guide and ongoing support from Emily Lambert, ensuring smooth transitions into new homes. Litter sizes are kept small to ensure undivided attention for each animal. The relaxed farm setting and consistent handling help hedgehogs settle smoothly into family homes.
