Tropifit Premium Atelerix Dwarf Hedgehog

Tropifit Premium Atelerix is a complete daily food developed specifically for African pygmy hedgehogs and other small hedgehog species, including four-toed, long-eared, North African, Southern African, and Somali hedgehogs. Available in a choice of pack sizes to suit single animals or multi-hedgehog households, it covers all core nutritional requirements in a single food.

Protein Sources and Energy

The recipe is built around chicken meal and dried mealworms, delivering 34% crude protein from animal sources. This supports muscle condition, sustained energy, and the naturally active, foraging behaviour of dwarf hedgehogs. With 11% crude fat, the formula provides a solid energy base without excess.

Skin, Digestion, and Immunity

• Salmon oil (2%) supplies omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to support healthy skin condition
• Natural chitin from shrimp shells and mealworms contributes to normal gut function and digestive health
• Beta-1.3/1.6-Glucan (1,000 mg/kg) and stabilised vitamin C (80 mg/kg) help support the immune system
