Hehe. So, finally the male shed. He's about 6ft now. Will try to take a pic later when Katt's around so you can see his size. Still small for a bull though.

Great male! The best part of the face is the little hood over their eye - it adds just a touch of menace to go with the hissy personality. Nice big guy,

If it wasn't for the head I'd say it was a Baja Gopher, they have amaging colours.

Nice snake Vanan! I have to admit I'm not up on Bull patterns, do they all have their patterns broken up so much? He almost looks like 3 snakes in one :cool:.

WOW!! Gr8 PIcs.

I have in the last few weeks got a Bull Snake. He's got a gr8 temperament & eats like a pig. He wasn't treated very well b4 I got him & for a few days was VERY temperamental. He's about 5ft in leght but only about 4inches in girth. by the looks of your Bull, I would say mine is very skinny. He was fed on only 1 small mouse a week. Then I got him on 1 small Rat... Last night was feeduing time again, I put 2 small Rats infor him last night & they were gone in no time. I was told that snakes will only take what they need. Is this true? I don't want to over-feed him, but ifhe takes it, he must need it, right?

Awesome colour! Never seen one with such intense colouration before!

she's a lovely looking snake, an excellent temperment as well.
the kids hold her,next doors kids come in and hold and she doesn't hiss,she just takes it all in her stride.
from what I can gather its quite unusual for this breed,they are supposed to be quite vicious

Spyderman, Bulls in the wild can be pretty nasty but in captivity they do tame down. They may have a hissy fit but are otherwise tame in your hands. :)

Bulls will eat and eat and eat in captivity. Given the opportunity most will eat as much as they can and eventually this will lead to an obese and unhealthy animal. For a 5 footer a medium to large rat per week is sufficient.

Oh, Wow!!! JaredAron. That is one beautiful snake. I bet he would get along Gr8 with my girl. I am looking for a male to mate with her.

As we speak, My Wifes stood talking to Ekans. (You try telling her she's deaf...Lol)

Just a thought. How would artificial insemination work? I'd love to mate her with an Albino.The bull that is not the wife...lol

Thank all for the help.

He was purchased from Santa Cruz Reptiles for $50. I sold him to a guy in Illinois for $100. I just recently sold almost all of my colubrids. I am starting to focus on boas and pythons. This snake's mother was reportedly over 7ft. Temperement was not the greatest but typical for bullsnakes, not much biting but a lot of hissing and mock striking. I always found it hilarious when my wife got freaked out by the hissing as it is unbeleivably loud for the size of the animal. Great snakes that are very hardy. Used to be my all time favorites until I got in to redtail boas.
