Nice job getting them up to scratch, how big are they? Must be around 5 inches at a guess.
Thanks Wing.
These youngsters are 5.5" across the disc.
 
Great job Richard. Now the hard work starts getting them to eat other foods! At least they are nice and fat now so you areable to start trying new foods. Good job.

The sister to my hystrix is turning out nice. Congratulations.

Hi Toby.
No these were litterally fresh out of Brazil 3 weeks ago,as you can see they were very skinny.I decided to try feeding them up over this time rather than subjecting them to any chemicals whilst they were in a weakened state.Once i was happy which was just yesterday i treated them with prazi to be absolutely sure they had no parasites.
I'm very happy with the outcome.

Thanks everyone for your comments as usual.

Wow, that's a really fast turnaround....Richard the miracle ray doctor!

Your not wrong Nikki,i think they are going to be tough nuts to crack but i will persevere.
Thanks again!
