It they are coming from the same person that's kind of bad :/ Don't suppose you know the name? Although if you buy them knowing they are kinky/possibly kinky I suppose there is nothing you can do. I just hope she doesn't sell deformed snakes as "perfectly healthy" I would also hope she's telling people not to breed them as they maybe fall into the hands of new snake keepers that maybe haven't researched enough...

Maybe take him to a rep vet specialist? It might give an idea of how they could effect him when his older, if there if in "pain" or not and if there is somehow any organ problems or anything else? Although I suppose if you do, there's nothing you can really do about it :(



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any ID on the table, and it is displayed on his box he is kinked. She just tried to down play how bad they were in Widget x.x I'll look up a retile vet in Worcester once I get back, and see about getting him booked in for a check over. Thanks to all for your advice and comments, I feel somewhat reassured that I'm doing a good thing looking after him, and that I haven't got a snake that should really be put down!
