    Truthfully, I have at least two females that are longer than she is, but not as bulky. However, close comparison shows her head structure is noticeably different, it's broader and heavier.

    Now, will she ever reach the mythical 7000 mark ? Maybe, maybe not. I have high hopes she is fairly young and will in time get big enough to be very impressive.

    This is very interesting to me!

    First - Congrats on a gorgeous girl and best of luck with the eggs!

    Second - I have a 3500 gram male that I rescued from someone that is about 15-16 years old (long story). The only reason I mention this is that he has a HUGE head! Everyone who sees him comments on his head! He is also pushing 5'-6" in length. I was told that he was wild caught, so could he possibly be one of these "giant BP's"? I have always wanted to breed him to see if his size was genetic, but my females have been tied up in different projects. This may get worked into my next season plans!

    Thanks for sharing and sorry for the slight derail!!!!
