1. Check out your local shelters as there may be hedgehogs up for adoption there. This way you can rescue an animal that really needs you.
2. Check site below. Has links to pet classifieds. Try US Freeads and go from there. Enter your zip code and you’ll find someone who has what you want near you. These sites also allow free ads to be placed so you can do that if you like. Sites cover all over the world. The site below also has good info on Hedgehog care, feeding, handling and healthcare issues. Also has other links for more info on these neat little guys.
3. check out hedgehogcentral.com and there is a list of breeders for each state.
4. http://hedgehogcentral.com/breederusa.shtml There's two USDA hedgehog breeders in Minnesota. This is the website of one of them, that includes some information on hedgehogs- http://www.freewebs.com/hedgiedelight/ . However, she charges $235 for her hedgehogs, a bit more expensive. If you want, you can check out breeders on the list in states around you, so that maybe you could drive a little further, but have to pay less for the hedgehog. Up to you. For the rest of your research on hedgehogs (do all of your research before buying one), you can check out www.hedgehogcentral.com . It's got tons of great information, and a forum where you can ask questions and get answers from lots of experienced hedgehog owners. Another great site with lots of up to date info is http://wiki.hedgehogcentral.com/tiki-index.php?page=Wiki+Home .
