Once upon a time there was an avocado pit that began to grow.
It grew and grew and grew and it is still growing in my living room, waiting for Summer.
This is a 3 day old White Belly Hedgehog, a friend of mine who also happens to be a farmer’swife, breeds them.
And here is mummy hedgehog.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain!

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

Chronicles of an Anglo Swiss 
Interesting. I always thought hedgehogs were wild critters in farmers fields. I wonder what does your friend do with them. Hugs

I live in hedghog land and when my son was in his younger years he would often come home in the early morning hours of Sunday and he told me that there were hedgehogs everywhere on the paths. These are special miniature hedgehogs. I even think the idea came from America to have them at home and breed them.

Glad you enjoyed it. We do not have such a range of big and small in Switzerland, and definitely no big ships.

Sweet hedgehog. We were just discussing whether hedgehog and echidna are the same animal. Any Idea???

I have no idea. The little hedgehogs are sweet. I once saw a normal hedgehog waslking around on my patio outside, but I left him to it. We have people here that have special rescue stations for hedgehogs and they are specialists. Personally I avoid contact with them, they have too many fleas and tics for my liking.

Baby hedgie looks like he could sub for a new plant, so if your avocado plant fails – you can see where this is going.

I have never seen a picture of a baby hedgehog before in fact I’m not sure if I have ever seen a hedgehog. We don’t have them here in Australia. We do have echidna’s though.they are not like hedgehogs, their other name is spiny anteater. Echidna’s are monotremes, egg laying mammals like the platypus. I saw a baby echidna once by the side of the road. It was very cute but then I guess all baby animals are cute.

I remember learning at school that the only two mammels in the world that laid eggs and suckled their young were the duckbilled platypus and the spiny anteater. We have hundreds hedgehogs here, but they only appear at night, so I do not often see them. Australia have interesting animals. I find wombats so interesting.

Yes we do have interesting animals. Fossils have been found of giant wombat like creatures from the dinosaur age. My sister and I were amused at the museum to read that they were “unlikely to have lived in burrows”.

My friend always had interesting animals. At one time she was breeding guinea pigs and found she had some room in the pen, and so began to breed this special type of hedgehog.
