Lots of kinks are caused by factors in the egg and are not genetic. Some are however. I had a male cornsnake that had a minor kink in the tip of his tail. To be honest, I thought it was probobly an old injury. HIs first litter, half the babies had BAD kinks and had to be euthanized.



There is no way to know without breeding. If you have other males, personally I wouldn't breed him. Either way it should not interfere with his breeding ability, and most of the time the babies are normal.



cheers
