I have but I hear leaves

The little man is working so hard and is really resourceful ❤

The cat is hilarious 😂

Hi may i ask if you can remember if your H45 camera remembered the date and time each time you removed the power . I have an apeman trail cam that resets the time each time i unplug the external power supply . Great videos by the way very enjoyable to watch . best regards to you .

Could you cut section of copper pipe and put that on the corners of the entrance

Was going to fill it with leave's, but I will Pop out to the pet shop for some Hay.

Home bargains I bought one this morning for £9.99 I couldn't buy the wood to make one that price,

You have wild hedgehogs? Or is this a pet that lives outside? (or both?!)

I’ve got a Reolink 4G Camera Go Plus. Pop a pay monthly SIM card in with 15 gig and it’s good for a month, no wires.

What camera would you use in an 18L Really Useful Storage Box please? I use plastic plumbing ‘elbows’ as entrances an the cats don’t go in. A circular drill bit to cut the hole. Especially if there is a saucer of water by the entrance. Cats won’t like getting their tummies wet as they crouch to enter. Not my idea. works a treat. Love your videos.

Where's the tunnel?

Do hedgehogs need company or are they happy alone ?

I have the same plastic box but fitted a piece of curved drainage pipe into the round hole t he same profile as the pipe at the side. Cats can't get in but hedgehogs can. Also I put a shallow dish of water outside the box. I know a hedgehog has been because the water level has gone down in the morning.

So 3 hedgehogs will need 3 houses, those little 4 legged cuties have taken over my garden. My dog can't even go there anymore😂

Thank you!

Beautiful hogs and hoglets ❤

Having recently set up. a feeding station following the guidance here, and then installed a Hedgehog House ( sourced from a lady in Portland Dorset ) I wanted some way of monitoring. I've had trail cameras over the years and they're a bit of a faff with batteries and SD cards. My solution was to purchase and repurpose some security cameras. The ones I chose were " Eufy " They are wireless and 2K resolution, plus relatively inexpensive. They don't need to connect to the internet, just your local WiFi. The results have been outstanding. I have outdoor cameras monitoring the comings and goings to each nest box, and an internal camera monitoring the feeding station, plus one in one of the nest boxes itself ( these are 5 volt USB powered ) The internal one is obscured by straw that the Hog has dragged in to build its nest and I'm loth to disturb it ) I have also fitted a small battery powered temperature and humidity sensor which logs hourly changes. It works over Bluetooth and was less that £20. I'm currently pondering 2k Wireless doorbell to go into the nest box as it is compact and has a wider angle lens that could be mounted internally on the roof. I'm getting reams of excellent quality footage.

Oh what wonderful eyes they have .Is this a feast or a hoglet discussion ? Maybe both .

And then there’s 2,3,4,5🎉6,7 oh wow just brilliant thank you for making my day.

Wow thats a nice dinner….My garden friends have slowly gone from nine each night to none over the last few nights. Still leaving food out because I expect at some point they may come back looking for it.

A hedgehog feast 🦔🦔🦔🦔

Oh here come the hoggies 🎉❤. Greetings from 🇨🇭

I have 5 disabled hedgehogs in my secure back garden, and a feeding station for the wild hedgehogs in my front garden. I also own a cat and I have cameras in both (wooden) feeding stations. Cats do not pose a threat to hedgehogs, apart from stealing their food. My own cat was very quickly put in his place by our very first blind hedgehog, who turned and charged at him, when he was threatening to pounce! He now ignores them, and they him. Cats never enter our secure garden feeding station, and only ever enter our front garden feeding station, when they know they won’t meet a hedgehog inside. The cats will enter after 5.30/6am once the last of the hedgehogs have gone to bed. Last year, the last hedgehog went into hibernation 31st October, 1st November the neighbourhood cats decided it was party time! Why don’t they enter our disabled hedgehogs’ station? Because all our hedgehogs are blind and aren’t too bothered about only coming out at night. There is a much higher chance of meeting a hedgehog in the back garden. From this point of view I prefer a wooden feeding station as the cats cannot see when there is no hedgehog inside, our stations both have two exits. With our front garden, I just take the hedgehog food inside early in the morning and put it back out at dusk. Leaving food out for hedgehogs in the Winter is more of a problem, when it’s beneficial to have food out for any hedgehog briefly waking from hibernation and looking for food. But only putting it out at night minimises the amount which will be stolen by cats. A tip for preventing rats and mice being attracted to a feeding station, is to put it in a more open area. Hedgehogs are less cautious about being out in a wide open space than rodents.

❤❤

Can I also ask you what you feed the hedgehogs, I bought Hedgehog food and they don't like it. Is there a dried food you recommend.

We have had hedgehogs in the garden for the last 4 years. A male and a female, we have never seen any young sadly .My husband built two houses which from time to time they spend the night in and we have made hedgehog highways in our fences. Sometimes a second male turns up . We do film them our grandchildren love seeing them. A lovely film gives me hope that one day we will have hoglets. Thank you for sharing.

Any tips on how to keep cats out? Badgers or foxes are not around where I live. Two of my neighbours have cats though...

Thank you for this! I’ve had to stop feeding the hedgehogs due to a very sneaky cat! He’s a beautiful cat but an absolute unit and just so fat! I thought it was hedgehogs eating it until I decided to hang out later and watch!

Great video.

I used a bigger plastic box with a click top lid - a 10cm squared entrance aling with a partitioning wall made out of cardboard abd covered in sticky backed plastic- fix the partitioning wall in place using duck tape 🦔❤️

How do you keep rats and mice out of the feeding station. Do you have any ideas for that?

For about £40 you could get a 2.4m x 1.2m sheet of 18mm hardwood ply. Marine ply would be better. Places like B&Q will often cut it up for you for free - especially if you were to tell the manager you're doing a conservation project. Of course you'd need to have a cutting plan, but I suspect you could make at least two and possibly three houses from one sheet + some glue and some screws.

I have a mummy and 2 baby's that come into my garden.. I have made a feed station with a bigger box them yours

But what I don't understand is how do I get it to ONLY record if something comes past the camera. Not the whole evening??

I just discovered that I have two chubby little hedgehogs living in my garden. It's pretty wild, more of an overgrown orchard really. I leave food and water out for around 10 stray cats, and I popped out late, around midnight and two hedgehogs were feasting on the dry food. They must be regular diners because the cats were not phased at all. I want to provide them with a house, but noticed they are hiding under a bottom shelf in a storage room I leave open for the cats. I live in Greece so it is hot, not sure when they will hibernate. I have a compost bin, beside a thick hedge of Bougainvillea, so Im thinking of placing it there. Or, should I place it where they are hanging out? in the storage room?

😮😮

Makasih bang

We were wondering how to do the feet but we got there in the end 🤔🤔

I love hedgehogs🦔🦔🦔❤❤

Thank you for this idea we built one at 7am😊🥱

Hedgehogs come every night to feed out of the cat dish, the cats just look on, we probably have four even in winter that feed.

Hi Mike what a beautiful garden you've made for your wonderful hedgehogs 🦔 great channel and great advice 👏 please may i ask what shrubs you've planted around the hedgehog area as we have made a similar area at the bottom of our garden but our plants are mostly woodland ie.acers,ferns including a dead trunk of a tree fern also hostas. Only afew evenings ago we had a hedgehog visit our garden who seemed to be quite familiar with the surroundings such as finding where the water features were as we have 3 and the entrance/exit and in no hurry to leave we think the hedgehog entered from the hedge behind our garden we live in a very small village in North Devon near Umberleigh and we live directly behind a field which the hedge is at the bottom of our garden we were blown away we were watching the hedgehog from our raised deck it was absolutely wonderful just to watch his/her movement through every inch of our garden so we quickly ordered a hedgehog house, anouther on the way & basically everything kitten food & Spikes hedgehog food,hay, logs and small feeding bowels which came the following day we've also bought a wildlife camera so as we approach autumn everything will be ready if this hedgehog returns or hopefully any we can only hope, my husband actually come across what looks like a hedgehog highway hole about the size of a cd case which the previous owner had done its in the dividing fence of 1 side of our neighbour which must mean hedgehogs were coming in the garden long before we moved here plus another entrance small gap at the other end of the fencing.We all need to help build a hedgehog highway so we can somehow help these beautiful animals survive. I also purchased your Hedgehog Hollow tee shirts for myself & husband absolutely marvellous idea Mike and for a great charity 👏 Keep up the fantastic work & videos well done 👏

Hi Mike 👋 may i ask what shrubs you use around your hedgehog area as ive recently had a hedgehog visit our garden in the evening and since made a safe area for the hedgehog at the bottom of our garden with a house & a feeding station with plenty of water but we only have mainly woodland plants such as ferns, acers and hostas and a trunk of a dead tree fern but would like to put a scrub or 2 with the plants we have. Loving your channel great advice for anyone who wants to help our beautiful visitors & hopefully with us humans making a hedgehog highway we can keep them from extinction which is devastating to think of please keep your channel going as we just love watching your friendly well loved hogs take care.

Hedgehog, in German, is 'der Igel.' There's a song we sing when we're kids called Die Katze tanzt Allein

Have just set up a night cam in my garden a few weeks ago and discovered I had Hedgehogs visiting. By finding out more about them from You Tubers like yourself, we have now set up a feeding station and plan to get these guys nice and fat for the winter. We were horrified to discover they were endangered now, and making a difference is now our mission. The Hedgehogs themselves are very much enjoying their nightly dining visits. They reward us with hilarious footage of their exploits as payment for the food! They are absolutely fascinating creatures, and impossibly cute. I would recommend everyone does this. It's a win win for Hedgehog and the other endangered species - the Human.
