    new pair of bullsnakes
    Bullsnakes have caught my eye for a while and I finally found a pair of late 2013 babies that I had to have. The male, an albino 66%whiteside and 66% axanthic, was cool the day of arrival but now when I take him out hes really hissy but still hasnt struck at me once. The female, albino whiteside 66% axanthic, was angry when I got her and I saw the scariest strike ever haha. My ball pythons rarely try to bite but when they do its a silent strike (usually my mimosa) but this girl struck and hissed at the same time it was pretty scary being my first time seeing it happen in person. Theyre both mid 200 grams so i have a head start if i ever decide to breed in the future. Thanks to kyle Mara from scaled inverts for a pleasant buying experience and for the first two pics that I'm about to post because these guys move way too quick for my own pics so far.

    Thanks guys! They both took a f/t mouse 3 days after being with me the feeding response and coil was awesome. This week I'll try a rat pup, they're definitely big enough I just wanted to start them off with a smaller meal the first time with me

    Gorgeous looking Bulls you have there B. Great minds think alike I guess. I have a female albino and a male albino whiteside. They were both a bit hissy in the beginning too but they calmed down after just a few meals. They're going to grow fast so be prepared. My female was a Sep. 2013 hatchling that I got in January 2014. She was 45g when I got her and she's over 1800g now. My male was hatched July 2014 and I got him in August 2014. He was 42g on arrival and he weighed 520g a few days ago. Pits are awesome snakes to keep. Best wishes with yours and keep the pictures coming! :)
