Default HUGE Pygmy Hedgehog

We sent our APH off for a dirty fortnight with his girlfriend, wh eventually gave birth to 1 male baby. We have now been given said baby, and I have to say he is the most humungous APH I have ever seen. He's the size of a British hedgehog.

Has anyone ever seen one this big? His mum and dad were both normal sized so goodness knows where he got it from. He's about twice the size of his dad! The big fatty.
