Are they fast growers? From what I've read so far they are a slow to medium grower, (questionable on the medium, I'm old and my memory is bad). Mine went from 2 in. when purchased on 12/10/19 to 3.25 maybe 3.5 in. end of Feb.2. Are they suppose to be fast moving?Again, from what I've read they are slow moving but when threaten move fast in retreat. Mine is zippy fast all the time.3. Are they porkers?Mine wants to eat alot but I only feed him twice a week.Will stop here as some of you know I'm long winded. Thanks in advance to any replies.</blockquote>
