FAQ about Hedgehogs

How to identify if possible na naay Mite imong hedgehogs

NORMAL



noticed the 3 fallen quills, it has ball like end, yun yung tinatawag nating follicles or yung pinaka-root, meaning natural sya na nalaglag due to quilling or yung pagpapalit nya ng quills

POSSIBLE WITH MITES



eto yung quills na possible sa mites, pansinin mo yung both end ng quill, seems both are sharp ang pointed...

one way na ginagawa ko is try mong dumampot nung nalaglag na quills and try to slide your thumb ang index finger, mapapansin mo na masasalat mo yung follicle na yun... kung wala, possible mites...
