Just called wildlife rescue out as I was concerned about one of the little hogs on last nights video. Really lovely chap from WRAS turned up and checked out the 3 hog houses, 1 was empty, 1 resident was asleep but not hibernating so he checked him/her out but it wasn’t the one I was concerned about, in the last hog house the little one had ticks, fleas and a lot of spines missing so he has taken it into the wildlife hospital for checking out and treatment and they will return it to me when it is in better shape.
Unfortunately the one I was really concerned about wasn’t in either house so I will have to watch out for it tonight and maybe able to detain it so they can check it out tomorrow for me.
Have cleaned and scalded out the two empty houses now and they are drying out ready to go back into use tonight.
At least I know all three survived the winter hibernation and for that I am very grateful.
