I recall you saying they were being shipped ?
If so.....
Let them settle in for at least a week,as in put them in a cage and dont touch them !!Offer a small meal and let them continue to chill for a week.
Week 3
Offer a larger prey item then previous,then continue this routine for another 3-4 weeks(feeding every 7 days)
Good regular home cooking never hurt anything !!
Monitor shed and defication progress thru out etc,etc,etc.....
Being adults(as I recall) cut them back to 2 X Month feedings and they should do fine.

Just dont rush them and they'll live and possibly produce for you
for many years to come.
