How close in size can Bullsnakes get compared to Indigos?

Has anyone ever had or seen an 8 ft. Bullsnake?

I saw a 6 and a half ft bull. That's the biggest I've seen.

A bullsnake, even a large one, will stay relatively skinny. An indigo can have a very wide circumference, perhaps 4-5" in diameter, when full grown. The indigo snake is North America's largest snake, and I personally caught (and instantly released after photos) a wild individual that was over 8 feet long and quite hefty.

The highway 277 bulls were 9' or so ive heard. But like snowgyre mentioned they will not have the sheer mass that drymarchon build up.

Mine is a male Stillwater Bull. I read the largest Bulls come from Oklahoma and Texas. However big the biggest ones are.

Here's the latest pic I can find of my Bull. He's bigger than this now.

8 ft. 10 lb bulls

I know of at least two upper midwest bulls of that size in private collections within driving distance of me. I also recently purchased some '09 Crumbly reds from someone in eastern WI . The parents are both that size as well. I have never seen any Drymarchon that were as large.

I've seen several in Wyoming that were every bit of 8 foot. I recently traded a 1.1 pair of LTC bulls caught around Abilene, TX that were over 7ft. Not sure of thier exact length but I am 5'10" and holding them up they had well over a foot still on the ground.
