It was mentioned to me that perhaps it could be derived from him possibly being overweight, which I had not considered. He is sort of a chunky boy I guess, so maybe it could have something to do with it? He is not fed a ton by any means though. Two jumbo adult mice once a week right now. I fed him twice a week back when he was a little tyke, but slowed him down a bit the last few months since he got to be around 4 feet long. Here are some snaps I took of him last night in a box. Maybe some of you more experienced can see something I perhaps am missing hopefully. Again yes he has a tail kink, below his vent. He actually refused food last night, two small hopper rats....pretty shocked haha! He just shed Friday morning, so I expected him to be starving, but I guess not last night

The very existence of flamethrowers means that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves..."You know, I really want to set those people over there on fire...but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."
