I’m no expert but I believe hedgehogs can hibernate at different times, with no exact science as to what triggers it. Some might not even hibernate if there is a reliable source of food available.
See my post ‘Hedgehog In The Snow’ under Hedgehog Signs and Sightings. I still have a hog(s?) feeding every night.
I’m convinced our recent topsy-turvy weather patterns are having an adverse effect on nocturnal/hibernating creatures.
