I should add that we can not move the bed they are to grow in as its specially raised, our own soil being too high in Arsenic to want to grow root veg direct in the ground (probably what caused our problems in the first place as the raised bit is mostly composted veg matter.

If you contact your nearest wildlife hospital they are always looking for safe release sites for hedgehogs. |
