Hystrix from Jeff Rapps

[PeteLockwood]

Picked this pair up on the weekend. Very timid, I guess to be expected for WC, but it's only been 48 hrs. Ate earthworm about an two hours after arrival and have been eating consistently - although not ravenously yet - twice a day.

These pics don't really do them justice, I think they're pretty nice kids, but I don't want to harass 'em too much.

Nice rays, how much did you get them for?

 

[PeteLockwood]

225ea. Not a great price but not paying for shipping obviously helped slightly. 5" or so BTW.

Nice pick up! Always wanted some Hystrix! How didnt you pay for shipping, did you pick them up from him directly?

Thanks all

Not from his premises but yes, Jeff met me and a couple other guys at a Pizza Hut on a very cold Saturday (well, maybe not to someone from MN) morning

I think he has a good price on them considering you can't find them. Whenever there is a demand and no supply the price always goes up. Nice pick ups.

Agreed, I know Pedro was around there when he was bringing them in.
