This keeps it exclusively for the hedgehogs (and blackbirds if left out during the day). It is made with Poultry meat meal, wheat, wheatfeed, whole maize, rice, poultry oil, brewer's yeast and whole linseed. with added vitamins. Composition: Crude Protein 25%, Crude oils and fats 12% Crude fibres 3% and Crude Ash 7%. I leave out a good handful each night and it is usually mostly all gone in the morning and regularly see a hedgehog eating it in the late evenings. Please contact me again if you have any further questions. **Q: How do you prevent rats from being attracted to this food? I'm concerned it would attract vermin.** A: Make sure you put the food out in the open, like the middle of the lawn - rats always stick to the edges **Q: Is this fish or meat based?** A: Spikes Delicious Complete Dry Hedgehog Food is Poultry and Meat based. There is no mention of fish on the ingredients. **Q: Does this food need to be kept dry when outside?** A: Ideally as it is a dry food, otherwise it goes to mush, although my hedgehogs still ate it wet. Sometimes I put it under a bush if it's drizzle, but a challenge in torrential rain. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Nutritious and Loved by Hedgehogs *by P***L on 12 October 2025* Spike’s Hedgehog Food is a fantastic choice for feeding wild or pet hedgehogs, packed with nutritious ingredients including real chicken to provide high protein.

Quick delivery and good price, pack size lasts a long time and we have 2-5 regular hedgehogs visiting nightly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hedgehogs must have a source of water if using dried Spike *by J***N on 19 March 2020* My visiting hogs absolutely love this and will often wait until I come out to feed them if I’m a bit late. They are creatures of habit and tend to come for their Spike at the same time each evening. I put down enough food that there is a very small amount left in the morning. This way I know they have had enough. Spike is much better than any moist food/cat/dog - especially for young hogs growing their teeth. Hogs need sharp strong teeth to eat their natural food of crunchy beetles! However, because Spike is a complete dried food, hedgehogs will eat less natural food (from which they would derive much of their moisture intake), its therefore vital to ensure theres a pond WITH A SLOPE/RAMP so they don’t drown or large dog bowls of water - (which they also like to wash in!) Another very good advantage of dried Spike is hogs are very prone to FLY STRIKE. In warm weather, even on summer evenings, moist food more easily attracts blow flies. Hogs then pick up the eggs as they eat the food and can commonly get a fatal attack of fly strike (where maggots hatch out in their spines and face fur). Hogs are also very prone to Lungworm too, so its worth placing the bowl of food on sand to deter slugs which pass on this fatal disease to hedgehogs (I NEVER use slug pellets as Hedgehogs eat slugs and are at great risk of secondary poisoning although it should be said that hedgehogs actual do not like slugs very much (they only form a small fraction of their diet) they prefer beetles, so a nice large log pile and dry sandy areas for beetles will help provide the best diet for hedgehogs along with their nightly Spike. I keep Spike in a large plastic tub (an empty fatballs bird food tub) and use usually one plastic tumbler per number of visiting hedgehogs each evening. Each morning before the Magpies and Blackbirds descend into the garden, I just check to see how much food has been eaten and moderate it the next evening if necessary. Spike is enough of a good complete and apparently very tasty meal for Hogs that I very rarely supplement it with any mealworms since these swell up in their bellies and are probably the equivalent of kids eating too many cheese puffs! Since using Spike, Ive never varied the food of my regular hogs since even the smallest change (ie to pet food or moist food ) can upset their tummies - I think its the best food out there, it may not be the cheapest but its worth it to help stop these beautiful creatures from disappearing from our gardens and countryside for ever. ## Frequently Bought Together - Spike's | Hedgehog Food, Delicious Crunchy Dry | High in Fibre, with Fresh Chicken | Suitable for Adults & Hoglets | Made in the UK (2.5kg) - Spike's | Hedgehog Food, Tasty Semi-Moist | Nutritious, with Fresh Chicken | Made in the UK (1.3kg) - Brambles Crunchy Hedgehog Food 2kg --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/48639147-spikes-delicious-crunchy-dry](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/48639147-spikes-delicious-crunchy-dry) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
