I love my bullsnakes. Awesome animals, and NEVER refuse a meal. Seriously one of my favorites in the collection.

This is my Hypomelanistic Bullsnake male.

Camera dosnt pick up his creamy orange color well at all. Its hard to reduce the red ( Id have to shoot in raw, to really control it, and im too lazy this morning)

Im trying to think.... I dont think so. Hes super mellow. My female though, shes nailed me a few times. But thats because i just honestly do not really care! They dont hurt! LOL

The whiteside boy tries, he acts all tough and hisses up a storm, but has yet to get me.



I used to keep track... but after awhile, you sort of lose count on whos bitten you and who hasnt! :lol:

You should consider them! the whole Genus are some of the best snakes IMHO to keep! Theyre active, simple to care for, constantly eat, and are entertaining. Lots of color variations, and they are quite manageable in size.

Boss, you have to get you a bull!!!! If you want to train to work with venomous, the only thing better is a cave dwelling rat snake!!!!
Bulls definitely have some character....

Pituophis are awesome. I love the way the pines and bulls are put together; to me they are a 'real' snake, not a pretend snake. They do very well on rats.
