Of the Bullsnakes I currently keep or have had in the past , it seems that the most of males tend to be larger, there were a few that were the same size as the females. I have never had any where the female was larger than the male.

I have never put two males together , therefor never witnessed any combat from mine. I am sure size has some outcome as to who will win , but I think strength and stamina plays the biggest role when it comes to combat.

To ensure survival, the strongest, fittest specimen usually wins to bred and create offspring.

Even when it comes to "human fighting", the biggest person is not always the victor.
