Listen, Brian may have only a couple thousand subscribers and he makes basic quality videos but let me tell you his content is expert level and he’s very well respected in the hobby. He is what you call a natural, he’s on RU-vid because he to his core is a boa enthusiast and expert. The best there is no fluff no bs…. My kind of guy

Mildly kinked snakes have been some of my most beloved pets. Think of Siamese cats - kinked tails are a badge of honor with their own legend attached!

Also, the most common reason is a protein or hormone that doesn't"click on" at the right time during incubation.

The original green Burmese python had a LOT of problems, but the owner kept him alive to produce greens which were bred to albinos for double hets to make patternless. That is the only type of reason I'd not euthenize a snake with deformities.

Good conversation...Imperfect babies are a fact of life. I culled a children's python recently because it had spina bifida and a bad kink above the cloaca. I've established a couple kinked dumeril's that someone else bred and rehomed them. They are still around. I have a tree boa with a kinked tail that I think was physical damage. It's situational and the issue should always focus on animal welfare. Personally, I'm pretty cynical towards anyone that breeds anything that has a clear defect like missing eyes. It's less clear when a defect is known to pop out of certain pairings. But, if you've got two snakes that are missing eyes and think that only one offspring missing eyes is a good outcome, well...

The missing eye example is a anecdote from another boa breeder

One pair of carpet pythons I bred years ago for 2-3 litters produced all babies that were tiny and hard to feed. Obviously this a genetic condition with these 2 snakes. I stopped breeding them. I had one water python litter with 2 problems. One egg didn't hatch because the back half of the baby simply wasn't there. Half-a-snake. Another baby was perfect except it's heart was outside the body. It protruded through the scales and i could see it beating. Weird. It lived just fine. I kept it's tub wet to prevent the heart from drying out, and all was fine. But longterm this is not viable. One scrape and the heart is gone. Some babies you just have to deal with.

Are you planning to try to breed that pair that have been producing the animals with the kinked tails again and doing something differently to try to avoid that, or are you just going to stop breeding that particular pair if my collection was not complete, ala my wife, then I would’ve been happy to take an animal with a slight imperfection.
