Most breeders of indigo snakes feel that this kinks in the spine) is due to high incubation temps; of course this may be hard to prove. When we incubate indigo eggs, we keep the temps below 78*F, this does seem to prevent this from happening. I know a lot of hognose breeders who push the mid 80's in incubation temps. I would stick to 80 max with hognose, it's always worked for me.
As stated earlier, the coloration condition is probably related to the spinal condition.
