Hi Jackietb
Great news you have a hog back. Hogs do tend to use up some weight when hibernating, but if it’s very small, Baldwin hedgehog might be right that it’s a different hog.
It’s never easy to tell what people mean by very small. But it would probably be worth weighing the little one and having a chat with your local carer. Some hoglets do need a bit of care from a carer/rehabilitator if they are very small coming out of hibernation. You can get contact details of your nearest carers from BHPS on 01584 890801
