omg...not a good situation to ever b in lol
the one time iv been bitten was by my 12ft burm ...at feeding...on my own. sooooo lucky hes a docile feeder. although since the bite hes turned to b a really aggressive feeder.
he used to come out every night once my lil girl had gone to bed, but now iv bitten he gets the full respect and understanding (not that i didnt before)he deserves. before i suppose i was kinda ignorant thinking he will never do it etc. i know understand the power of him. so im just extra careful now...which isnt such a bad thing.

Hey hows it going! Very cool bullfrog, never met anyone other than me that has one as a pet haha im sure its more common. Your rain chamber, have you induced them to breed? that would be hella cool! Also interesting morph


They are in the tank together but since then I have made the tank inside alittle different and haven't added the rain back yet. The male does croak every now and again though...but the female isn't having it haha. What do you have your bullfrog in?

luckily i have a big house lol
but hence it being on my want list. i already have 2 burms and as i live on my own, i have to wait for someone to be free to come round so i can handle them. i just dont think it wouldnt b fair on any other large snakes just yet. one day when im married or have a long term partner then i will look in to the retic and annie.
