This is interesting as you are the first person ive heard say this. My burm is like a moron by comparison to my retics which are far more alert and responsive.

I wouldnt say 16 foot is particularly big for a male tiger. A female will usually dwarf this size, steve d has a 19 footer and shes still growing, shes put on 2 inches in a month, which at that size is still going strong.
