I recieved a hogg island boa the other day that has several severe spinal kinks along his body . They start about half way down his body . He is eight months old and only 134g , he was a poor feeder at the begining but apprently good now . He is a fairly healthy snake other than the spinal kinks . He can get around okay , and seems is very active and curious . He is handable and very calm , no signs of being stressed or at all aggressive . He can function okay and the kinks have apparently been in improving with age . Is it fair to keep him alive or would I be making him suffer ? I would really appriciate your opinions and advice . Thank you .
