					<description><![CDATA[They are fox snakes, no doubt at all. Bull snakes have become quiet rare in Iowa inhabiting sandy prairie. Fox snakes are much more common and found in a wider varieties of habitat, though often with water of some sort not too far away. These males will pursue the females when courting and male snakes will spar with one another. Mating males will often bite the neck of the females when mating. They&#039;ll lay 10-20 eggs in a dark, slightly damp spot general mid July. The 10-12 inch gray and black babies will hatch in about 6 weeks. These guys eat loads of mice, young rats, baby rabbits, voles, deer mice and very occasionally a baby bird. Very good snakes to have a round, a little feisty when scared, but tame down right away usually.]]></description>
