At what age do youy remove the fry from the parents. We are probably at the 4.5 week mark. All eating beef heart. Dad doesn't loook concerned though so I really don't know what to do. Babies are from 2 different parents so about 4 days in age difference so there is a bit of a size difference between the 2 batches

From what I've heard, once the babies are eating beef heart etc, if it safe for them to be separated from their parents.

Can someone else confirm?

I would generally leave them for as long as possible with the parents, depending on how the parents were able to feed them. I would think now that they are feeding independantly you will be fine to remove the parrents....give them a rest
