Skin irritation in hedgehogs can manifest in various ways. Some common signs to look out for include redness, dryness, flakiness, or scabs on the skin. Hedgehogs may also exhibit excessive scratching or licking of certain areas, which can further irritate the skin. Hair loss, especially in localized areas, can be a sign of skin irritation or an underlying issue. Additionally, if you notice your hedgehog constantly rolling into a ball or avoiding being touched, it could indicate discomfort or pain related to skin irritation. Regularly inspect your hedgehog's skin during bonding sessions or while handling them to catch any signs of irritation early.
