Corn/bull snake pics?

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone would know what a mix like this might look like. Someone I know let their normal corn breed with a bull snake and they a should be hatched anytime now. I might be interested in taking one for a pet...

Also, any idea their temperament might be? I'm not extremely familiar with bull snakes.
 
Bulls are "huffy" snakes when agitated. On the whole, they are more easily agitated than corns. And they have a fast digestive system... read "smellier poo." All that aside, I *loved* working with them and will probably get back into them some day. Big, stocky, impressive snakes. As for pictures, if you Google "Turbo corn" or "Bull corn snake hybrid," you'll get some images, mixed with images that have nothing to do with either. But they vary almost as much as pure corns or pits. I'm not a hybrid fan, but some are really pretty.
 
I have no idea but I would be interested in seeing what that looked like to. I have not dealt with any bull snakes however my parents have one that lives in their yard. They have named him Fred and for a wild snake he seems very sweet and calm.
 
Thanks for the info! From what I can see they are... interesting. I guess I'll wait till they are out and take a look at them. I'll post a picture if I decide to get one.

Thanks again!

Thank you for that info! A turbo corn is not as pretty as a corn or the bull snake huh. I guess I will stick with my corns, I like the pretty colors. :laugh:
 
I think all of my corn/bull and corn/gopher crosses are quite pretty. I love that particular hybrid cross. Here is my male, Dallas, an Okeetee/Texas bullsnake cross.
