That's too bad.. he is a good looking animal..



I would think that since he is a 2011 this is an incubation related spinal kink which is fairly common in alterna... and, as john mentioned, may be caused by incubation temps/moisture.. I produce a few kinked babies every year and i usually give them away to kids as pet animals (unless the kinks are very bad).. So, i have never personally bred an animal with a kink, but i have heard of others that have without an issue..



i am interested in hearing others opinions on breeding kinked animals..



Good luck with him!
