Just wondering are these guys meant to be as fat as most of them are, i mean is it healthy because i presume they would estivate in the wild or whatever and not eat as much as they do in captivity.

Yes. They are ambush preditors, they will naturally dig in and wait for food to come too close.
Think.... dust bin with feet

Pacmans and pixies are awsomely disgusting but i've seen one which to be frank just looks like a pile of poo dropped from a great height with eyes!
