Update
Thank you for getting back to me. I did take the hedgehog to a carer before I posted the original message. I told the carer about her unusual behaviour but the carer said it looked like the birth was imminent and wouldn’t take her for further investigation. So we brought her home. So that night we put her in the garden and around 11 pm she left the cardboard box not to return. I thought she may of been traumatised by her adventure so didn’t want to intrude any more. I only asked the question about another home incase she gave birth immediately and stayed out. I knew the box wouldn’t be sufficient. I’m leaving water and food out and while I’m not sure she is eating and drinking this morning there seemed to be a few droppings next to the water dish (same shape as in her cardboard box). So hopefully she is ok. Thank you for your time.
