Olivia is a Peach Hedgie.. her coloring is a creamy color – not something you typically see, but not unusual if you seek out breeders.

She’s 1 year old, so fully grown.. she was a tiny baby and the breeder figured she’d always be pretty small.

She’s very tame, but the quills are very prickley… She doesn’t see very far distance, but she does enjoy Sky (our Aussie) getting up to her cage and watching her. :)

She does this thing called “huffing”.. all her quills stick up and cross over, creating a protective barrier.. she’ll make these huffing noises to scare off predators.. like my hand trying to clean her cage.. once she recognizes the smell, or the person, she’s all sweetness.. only takes a few seconds. I should video it.
