I have an awesome herping site in Adams County Colorado for bulls if you are still in that area. I wouldn't mind sharing offline, just message me. In 1997 I caught a gravid female morph that was incredible looking. She had a faded pattern and looked lavender/purplish in the sunlight. I was more excited with that catch than any other in my life to this date.

Unfortunately, I didn't know she was gravid (she was only about 4ft) and while I was away for a long weekend she laid eggs and died from being egg bound.

I was fishing in Teller County in 1996 and happened upon a 7 ft bullsnake along the river. It's the only bullsnake I ever caught in Colorado over 6ft, and most were in the 4-5ft range.

Regards,
-C
