Well I dont think it counts now but Im sure my Burm "Mr" 15' gave a run for the money on here... I have a buddy Matt that has a 18ft female & I know of a couple in the UK (not personally) but Im not sure if they were ever a part of this forum.
Mr is now about 10 min away from me in the local Zoo here in NY. It took 3 hard months to make the decision. He is 21 years old this year. His enclosure is now a entire room in the Reptile house. Its aprox 40x25 & has 1 complete Glass wall so people can see in. A in ground pond that is about 3' in the middle, huge logs that lean up against the wall at a 45 degree angle and a room mate thats a Male Normal. There hasn't been any issues between them. Each time I've gone to visit they are just laying spread out...sometimes 1/2 in the pond not paying any attention to each other... I think its a better environment for him to live the elder years of his life. He was always a great Docile boy. When we were young Id come home and my wife would have him out (before we had kids) and never had issues thank god. Once he reached 10' she couldn't handle him anymore and I just assumed she didnt.. Its cool to see my wife and I in the old Polaroid pics at 18 years old when we first got him... God it seems like yesterday.
I wonder if he can tell its me from outside the glass? Anyway thats my round about way of saying I think Im now excluded from this Post Poll hahahahahaha...
