Green Feathers Large Hedgehog Feeding Station
Green Feathers Large Hedgehog Feeding Station
Whilst Green Feathers spend most of their time talking about our feathered friends, they know that they're not the only things people use their cameras to watch. One of the most popular animals people love watching in their garden is hedgehogs. Sadly, wild populations are declining fast in the UK, so setting up a hedgehog box to help feed and protect them is a great way to help out. Because of this, they've put together this custom-designed box, ideal for any garden. Don't forget that you can add a camera as well!
The eco-roof is made of recycled composite materials with the added benefit of being completely waterproof and rot-proof. It's built with a sloping roof for water drainage along with additional grooves on the top of the side panels. The lid is hinged and lockable. Ventilation is provided by a clog-proof, narrow gap under the roof along the front.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to put out a hedgehog house?
Late March to early April is ideal for setting up a hedgehog home. This gives hedgehogs plenty of time to discover their new safe space before the colder months set in. Placing the house in a quiet, shady spot, away from direct sunlight and cold winter winds, helps create the perfect environment.
Why is hedgehog conservation so important?
Hedgehog populations have declined sharply in recent years due to loss of natural habitat and increased dangers like roads and predators. Supporting hedgehogs with food, shelter, and safe passage through gardens helps protect this beloved species, and boosts biodiversity in your garden too.
Where should I position the house’s entrance?
To protect against harsh elements and prevent predators like foxes or cats from spotting what's inside, the house’s entrance should ideally face north or east. This keeps it sheltered from wind and rain, while still allowing hedgehogs easy access to the box.
Can I feed hedgehogs in summer as well as winter?
Yes, feeding hedgehogs during the summer months helps them build up strength for breeding and later hibernation. Offer hedgehog food in a covered feeding station to protect it from larger animals and always place fresh water nearby.
