I have kept a lot of snakes over the years, but I have to say these guys rank right up there with L.t.gaigeae as my all time favorites...beautiful, massive, eating machines with tons of personality! Now, if I can just get them to sit still for pics!

Thanks for looking!

Awesome bull! I agree that the northern bulls are very eye catchy and lots of fun to have around! I also have that problem of getting them to slow down enough for a picture! Speedy things!

Awesome sayi, love the IL's

You got your states mixed up there. Kankakee is in Illinois, Newton is in Indiana.

Nice. I've seen a ton of bull snakes in Illinois, and that one is cleaner than most.
