we still have a female which were keeping so we cant give you the tank, which was 100's of £ to start with. we currently have the males seperated from the female in a huge storage container on wheels, completely see through which we found a better alternative to buying another tank. we'd be more than happy to give you that plus some food :) or we have a smaller cage, that would be best as temporary due to space which you could have. they sell massive cages at pets at home which arnt very expensive which you could get in the near future. pm me with your decision or we can try and reach another deal. is it one of the youngsters your after or the pedigree male?

Do they live for 7 years? How old is the male? I think it's fair that they be in pairs so they're not bored. Do their spikes actually work like British hogs incase any cats find them?

im not entirely sure how long they live for. the male is about 10 month old, maybe a bit more. in the wild they are solitary and do just as well on there own. yes they can curl into balls and spike up, but theyre tame to people so they lay them flat and you can stroke them :)

There are many classifications of Albinism, you can get Albino mammals with some eye pigment & that's a fact MATE!

sorry mate but thats a white tiger, not an albino one. its a bengal tiger born with a gene that turns it white. and if it was albino why would it have black stripes? :S so im guessing your not interested in them as they only have red eyes?

True (amelanistic) albinos lack melanin and are white with no markings and with unpigmented pink eyes.
there is however a patchy albino in the animal kingdom (piebaldism).
so to clarify after research, are you selling
pygmy albino hedgehogs, or pygmy patchy albino hedgehogs?
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

piebaldism is rare as it is, nevermind managing to find a case of it which causes the body to turn white leaving the eyes pigmented :P even then the eyes of the hedgehog would be brown....
and to clarify, these are un-patchy albino hedgehogs ;)
