Hi ARH

I think it’s brilliant that you are excited!

Unless your housing development is one of those enlightened ones which include holes in the fences/walls for hogs to get through, you might like to look into making a hedgehog highway for them. The more gardens they can access without having to cross roads, the better for them. Hedgehogs need access to many gardens. Some information here:

Sadly there aren’t so many hogs in the countryside these days and they rely a lot on people’s gardens. You might like to create some wildlife friendly features in your garden – info. here:

There are lots of free downloadable resources:

Good luck. Hope the hogs do well. Happy hog watching.
