HI Eleanor. We have two hedgehogs visiting our garden. We have been feeding them as recommended and they come back now ever evening about 9ish. Need to make them a home and I like your design. Very clearly explained and a nice simple project that I'm sure many will find easy to follow and make. Looking forward to many little baby Tiggywinkles in our garden soon!!
Hi we have three boxes, two feeding stations, a fresh water station and a trail camera that we can record night- time visits. We have five hogs vistiting from around 8pm until around 7am. Several stay in our boxes during the day and I am able to put white acrylic paint dots, on them, so we can monitor their vists, and identify and monitor new visitors, too. I can send photos if required. Raymond.
If you can get a paving stone, or even broken pieces, to put the base of the house on, it stops dampness attacking it. If the top is not a really tight fit or has some sort of lock fitted then a badger or even a fox can dislodge it and gain entry.
Hello, There is no update video about Spike. I hope he/she recovered. I just made a hedgehog house out of bricks and wood I had lying about. I covered it with branches and leaves to hide it.
Something else that I watched had a great idea on top of the roof. Copper .5mlsheet facing upwards, contact adhesive below. Stops dampness off the roof getting to the nest. Plus a "vent" for moisture escape.
Thank you for sharing with us all 👍🏻😊🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔
Congrats ! A very comfortable home for very lucky hedgehog.

We have 4 resident hogs that live in our garden and we spend many hours watching them .. nice video
That is a much easier design than making an outside tunnel Eleanor. Thank you very much!
Totally agree.
Yep.. simple design. Great!

Nice box but I'd worry a fox Ur dog lifting the roof of with its nose
lovely job
Did you camouflage the house after you built it
Any news on the sizes of the box please?
I think the door opening is too big. A cat could easily get inside.
Hi Eleanor. Will you look at my Hedgehog House and let me know what you think.
Can you give me width, depth and height dimensions please. Many thanks.
