Recently I was given a hatchling Blue Beauty. She has 4 quite noticeable kinks, however she's eating, drinking, and behaving normally. I don't have any previous experience with this type of rat snake and haven't had much luck finding a lot of information. I understand the requirements for space, places to climb, hide areas, etc. I would like to get suggestions on handling (since they are quite skittish and she tends to strike some), and any tips on what works best from experience for cage setup. Also, regarding the kinks, is anyone aware if this will likely have long term effects on the snake's health? I don't know anyone who's kept a snake with kinks as an adult. Any info is appreciated!
