Hi Buddy42 – welcome to the forum.

My consideration on your question would be that if your local hogs aren’t taking the dog food or Spikes (are both food types hard?) – then they probably aren’t too hungry – more like they are taking the mealworms because they are available and delicious to hogs. have you tried the semi-moist Spikes? are you putting water out with the food?
I’ve not heard of the calci-worms – but it sounds like it might be encouraging the worm preference in their eating habits and not providing the rest of the nutrition in their diet either. The hedgehog specific foods are balanced and targeted towards hog nutritional needs, so they really are the best ones to go for.
