It appears that the panda cub twins at Zoo Atlanta are thriving, as seen in one adorable photo the zoo posted Friday.

Jenny E., the lead keeper, posted an update from the zoo’s nursery on Facebook. She said that she is “impressed with how quickly they are growing and getting their nice black coloring.”

Accompanying the update is a photo of one of the newborn pandas, stretched out in what looks like a “food coma” pose.

The keeper also provided an updated on mother Lun Lun, who is regaining her appetite but preferring biscuits to bamboo.

The panda cub twins were born Sept. 3. The pair should go on public display in Dec. 2016 or Jan 2017.
