Here's The Transcript from “Can Hedgehogs Have Allergies?”:

Hey hedgie fans. In case you’re new to my channel, I’m Quilly from heavenlyhedgies.com and I answer your questions about hedgehogs.

Today’s question comes from Brittney who lives in North Carolina.
And she asked, “Can hedgehogs have allergies?”

Well actually yes Brittney, they can have allergies to a lot of things.
Each hedgehog has different tolerances and can actually take an allergy test just like humans can.
Us hedgehogs can have allergies to things that we breathe, things that we eat, and things that touch our skin.

I hope that answers your question. Thanks for writing in Brittney
