What do baby bull snakes eat?
In the wild, bullsnakes eat a wide variety of food. They eat pocket gophers, rats, mice, rabbits, ground squirrels, and occasionally birds and bird eggs. The bullsnake has only a few predators in the wild such as: hawks, eagles, and other birds of prey. The female bullsnake lays 12 to 18 eggs in one mating season. After the eggs have been layed the female leaves the eggs to hatch and raise themselves. After 9 to 11 weeks the eggs will hatch and go out to find food on their own. The babies are born about 12 to 18 inches long upon their hatching. The Bull Snake’s diet is mice, rabbits, gophers and the ground squirrel. The Bull Snake is a carnivore. It suffocates its prey. The Bull Snake starts off in an egg. Then the egg hatches and a baby Bull Snake is born. The baby Bull Snake then turns into an adult Bull Snake.
