Oh bless Kassie! As you see from my posts, I too found it so heart-rending to discover a dead hog. And I know my immediate thoughts like yours were ‘what did I do wrong?’
Please read Nic’s informative and supportive reply in this thread; much about the dangers of hibernation etc.
I know the sadness can be quite overwhelming but be proud you have supported your hedgehogs.
I was surprised you had two hedgehogs in the box – perhaps someone wiser than me might know why they chose to hibernate together? Were they late born siblings if they feeding through the winter?
Whatever, just wanted to send a message of support and understanding.
