what's the time to wait to breed again the hedgy female ? hoglets are fully weaned now, and are almost big as the mum!

3-4 months or even longer depending on how large the litter was and if mom got worn out from it.

Ideally, you should only breed your hedgehog 2 or 3 times a year. You should give her 3-4 months off after the weaning of her hoglets. Best of luck!

I would give her a nice 4 month break, she deserves it after raising a litter for 6 weeks.
