I've always been more a Carpets and Chondros type of girl but just recently decided I want to purchase my first Bull Snake after interacting with a huge adult female that's a recent addition to my local herp shop.(What an attitude! lol)
I've since researched a little and am absolutely in love with the coloring of Stillwater Hypo Bulls. They're stunning. Now I realize that Stillwater is the locality but are they hypomelanistic by definition or is the hypo part a morph of a normal Stillwater Bull Snake? It's all very confusing.
and if they are hypomelanistic by definition, does their color improve with age? I know it's usually the opposite care but I ask because I found one locally and it's coloring is not nearly as impressive as 99% of the pictures I've seen online. Any input would be appreciated
