Anything wrong with my hedgie?

[kelloggs]

My hedgie does not seem to be furry on the stomach as it seems it should be. The fur seems to be really thin. I can see the pink on the stomach. Is that normal? also, how pink is the skin supposed to be? I don't know what to do. I really think there's supposed to be more furr on the stomach. What can i do to help that? :(

how old is your hedgehog? some jsut dont' have alot of fur on their tummies. Annie's fur is a tad thin. if you look in my gallery you'll find a pic of noel on her back and you get a really good look at her stomach. it looks almost orange in the pic, only beacuse she was pregnant and was extreamly fat

my hedgehog was born on about 10/26/2004. aww your hedgehog is really cute. but like, how pink are the stomach supposed to be? mine is bright pink? is that normal? also, whenever i touch her nose, its wet. is that good?

My hedgie has very thin fur on her belly with a lot of pink skin showing through. It has thickened a bit as she's gotten older, but it still always looks thin to me. *shrugs*
For your other question, my hedgie's nose is also very wet, almost all the time. My understanding is that a wet nose is a sign of good health. Wet nose with mucus or sneezing, stuff like that, is bad news.

She is almost three months old so she is still just a baby. Her belly fur will probably grow thicker as she ages. At her young and tender age, there are going to be a lot of changes to her. Including her color when she starts quilling. If you haven't already, I would suggest that now might be a good time to do some researching to prepare yourself. Judging from your questions, you have a lot of studing to do! lol :)
I look forward to hearing all about her changes as she grows up and seeing photo's.
BTW, a cold wet nose is a good sign. What you don't want to see is a runny snotty nose which can be a sign of several different illness, none of which is good.
