I'm also wanting a hedgehog, great for the garden
A hedgehog is a bit like a cute cactus with legs.
( it's funny how I'm attracted to spiky things...)
I tell my darling wife..

Are snails allergic to it (like salt)? :???: :???:
No but you might serve it with the cooked snails
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
