How large is a bull snake at Birth? I would like to see that information in the article.

My father took my mother on one of their first dates to his grandparents house. When she asked what was for dinner he said "bullsnake". He was very ornery and just wanted to freak her out. It worked. It was really German Sausage. So now we always say we are having Bullsnake when we have German Sausage. One of my favorite stories. Didn't know Bullsnake really existed until I looked it up on Wikipedia today out of curiosity. Awesome! Drjimmy8 (talk) 01:03, 31 January 2012 (UTC)drjimmy8[reply]

would be great add-on if they could have an identifying section on Bullsnake vs. Western Diamondback Rattlesnake. probably save some bullsnakes from being needlessly killed. That's what i'm trying to determine right now. Small snake, no fangs (yet?), no rattle (yet?) and looks remarkably similar to diamondback rattler from what i remember but the patterns may not be correct so....wish i had some comparison pics. 107.38.216.239 (talk) 00:28, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Geographic Range

I used to live in the State of Washington. I have seen them there many times. They are also sometimes called Blowsnakes. Jokem (talk) 00:54, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The gopher snake (Pituophis catenifer) is a species of snake with multiple subspecies. The subject of this article is Pituophis catenifer sayi commonly called the bullsnake. It is the subspecies found in the Great Plains. The subspecies found in Washington state is the Great Basin gopher snake (Pituophis catenifer deserticola). They are the same species and look similar, but there are subtle differences such as the number of blotches on the back and the scales on the head. This article would benefit greatly from a range map for the species showing the distributions of the various subspecies within the range. WiLaFa (talk) 05:59, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
