Is this a garter snake?

[EasternGirl]

That is a really cool looking snake!

they are different species in the same genus, bullsnakes are bullsnakes there are no bullsnake subspecies. Gophers do have subspecies

Here in CO they are commonly called bullsnakes but are actually gopher snakes. I understand the confusion.

Bullsnake or Gopher Snake

gopher, bull, same difference. Essentially the same snake on the surface.
