Ok so last summer i was backpacking in the back country of New Mexico. While we were in base camp my friends thought he had a rattlesnake in his ten. He camp running out as i camp running with my snake stick. After i heard no rattleing and i positively ID'ed it as a bullsnake. This was the first live experience with bulls snakes iv had. The snake was pretty, well at least i thought so, most of the others in the crew didnt think so. I bagged him up and took him afaw from base camp and released him near a nice creek and some trees.
Now for the hard question. This took place about a mile out side of Cimmaron NM. Does anyone know what Locality would be in this area. Id really like to know because i found a lot of snakes in this area but did not take any because they look a lot better in the natural enviroment than they do in a cage but id like to have one of this locality but captive bred.
thanks for the help in advance

If you mean what subspecies, I think it's just sayi, but I'd have to check a field guide to make sure. Locality doesn't matter much except to gray-banded kingsnake breeders; most species exhibit sufficient variation in color/pattern that you can get something that resembles the snake you saw in the wild, without having to get a snake from the same particular area.
