    Farmed African balls

    So I picked up 3 new babies that were referred to as "farmed African balls" when I asked where he got them from. He said that they pick up big gravid females and take the eggs and hatch them out so they're "captive born". I'll post up some pictures here in a little bit but I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with these "farmed" balls and what I should expect as far as eating response goes. Any tips or things I should watch for? Farmed or not they're still cute and I want to do the best I can for them.

    Farmed babies come in every year, besides treating for parasites husbandry is the same as any other bp.
