I respectfully disagree.

If the poster says it's not kinked I give him the benefit of the doubt that it could be a bad pic that just makes it look that way.

But, my main point which really isn't at all specific to this animal or this picture is that I think there is too much filtering of negative information already. The tendency for kinking in caramels is an example. Many of us already had caramel projects (admittedly mine was very humble with little invested) when the news finally broke publically about this issue. RDR was apparently the only one willing to show/talk about this imperfection. I think there will continue to be new problem morphs from time to time but keeping the issues out of the public view creates more problems and reduces the chances of finding a solution. If there is an issue it will eventually be known and delaying disclosure only increases the number of stock holders who will be affected when it does become public. And early public discussion of the issues might result in someone coming up with a solution and reduce the number of affected animals created.
