Hi Florence,
I am not an expert but the new thinking is that meal worms nuts etc can in the long term damage the hedgehog bones. They lovvveeee these things and can get an addiction. I have asked about this previously and it is advisable to wean the hedgehogs off slowly.
There is a feeding guide on this site.
I had about 4 or 5 hedgehogs last year and 3 so far this year and they are very happily eating ARK hedgehog food.
Re milk- Again as much as they like it hedgehogs are lactose intolerant and it can give them a very bad tummy upset.
Hope that helps a bit.
