My favorite picture
This is, by far, my favorite picture. I took it about a month ago, just about a day or two after my baby hedgehogs opened their eyes. I was incredibly lucky, considering that, as a surival instinct, the mother eats it's proginy when feeling threatened, and it just happens to be that the mom decided to go on a walk through my room, leaving the poor babies unattended. Bad mom for sure, but I couldn't be more thankful.They were still shaking, unused to their own legs supporting their weight, so they wobbled around most of the time. This baby however, decided to stop for a moment and use it's newly opened eyes to scout it's surroundings, which mainly consisted in another hedgehog's face. They didn't seem scared at all, which is rare, considering these creatures have no other means of self defense than curling into a spiky , almost hermetic ball. Finding them both completely unfolded was pure luck.And well, me being so overly on top of them, they no longer considered me a threat, which I think is kind of awesome.
Only one of those babies now remains with me, having sold all the other 4. I still get to keep the baby's dad and mom though.
