The ideal temperature for a hedgehog's habitat is between 72°F to 80°F (22°C to 27°C). Hedgehogs are sensitive to temperature fluctuations, and keeping them within this range helps ensure their health and comfort. If the temperature drops below 70°F (21°C), hedgehogs may become lethargic and could potentially enter hibernation, which can be dangerous for them in captivity. Conversely, temperatures above 80°F (27°C) can lead to overheating and stress.

To maintain a stable environment, consider using a thermostat-controlled heat mat to provide warmth during colder months, and ensure good ventilation to prevent overheating during warmer months. Always monitor the temperature with a reliable thermometer and adjust accordingly to keep your hedgehog happy and healthy.
