Hi Tracie,
the quills are not toxic, however if they are not clean and somehow penetrates your skin, then you could generate get an infection. It is always recommended to handle them up while they are in a relax state.

the palms of my hands sting and tingle in the places where the quills have touched during and after holding the hedgehog. am i allergic, or do they have a slight toxin in them?
