good luck. you will need a big tank

I believe that they breed in mud holes/caves in the water which is impossible to do in an aquarium. You could try putting them into a natural pond (one with mud sides instead of pond liner) and just leave them alone. I really don't think its an easy task in a controlled environment, if even possible, but if you are able to get things natural as possible I think they should breed on there own without any aid from you. Also I am pretty sure they ONLY breed in the spring.

k thanks do u no if a certain kind of bullhead is easier than another

A pond is your best bet. They are seasonal. You will know the males are ready because the tops of their heads become very muscular. My black bullheads would always start to show signs around this time of year.

[stevenrox]

when i read the title i thought you were gonna deep fry them

 

[fisherman1035]

o no i spelled breeding wrong in the title

I thought the same when I saw the title. I was going suggest Louisiana Fish Fry. With the catfish nuggets cut in angles, it will give it that nice crispy edge when fried.

If you use a pond I believe you should be able to do it seasonally
