I also called my Exotics vet *5 min away* and they said it coast $15.00 for one vet visit and checkup. That is a good price I Think.. I have a vet lined up and EVERYTHING. I really am ready to own a hedgehog, I dont care if you guys dont think I amresponsibe, I am the most responsible person I know with pets. I can definitly afford vet visits, cage, food, and everything. I just cant afford the hog witch really blows.
