Thanks everyone!
They will have been here a week now, and yeah they are slowly starting to get to be super active. I had them climbing all over my shoulders while doing laundry today. We haven't tire free ranging fully yet, but we will in the morning. I haven't had to rat proof much in a while since the boys are so big and cannot get into small corners.
Lol more sleepy pictures after then ran all over is today. Even the wife likes the girls, especially Mina

I have seven here and just based on my personal experience the girls do tend to have more health problems so you'll need to watch them carefully. A couple of my girls got mammary tumors. 
Good luck with all your babies! They are so much fun to have around! Your boys will be all over your hands if you handle your girls before touching the and vice versa. They constantly make me laugh around here so enjoy!!
Oh yeah, I did some researching before getting the girls, but decided I wanted them anyway despite the health concerns. I'm sure they will do pretty well though, and hopefully we won't have too many issues, but most of my pets have health problems so like all the others I'll just take them to the vet.
My boys were completely obsessed the first few days, and would hang outside their cage constantly. I was told that free range time might turn into a "hey look at the ladies!" time, and it sort of did.
Now the boys have gotten to where they spend about ten minutes sniffing and saying hi to the ladies and then running around and doing their own thing. I'm sure they will be interested again the older they get, but I guess they didn't want to waste their entire free range time tormenting the girls.
