Hi NorfolkHedgehog, Granny7 and Kay69

Don’t worry if there are still hogs around. Some decide not to hibernate and if you have some of those ones around, it’s really important then that you continue to offer them food and water throughout the winter. They don’t seem too bothered about the cold as long as they can find food.

However, I wouldn’t expect them to pop out during the day, especially when the nights are so long, so I would keep an eye out in case one comes out during the day again. It may not be finding enough food and/or water. Ideally, if they are not hibernating and were hoglets (non-hibernators often are first year hogs), I would expect them to continue to grow.
