I was interested in getting him til I had him out and the poor snake looked like he did a tour in Iraq, had bite wounds, and a large lump at the base of his tail that looked like a knuckle.
sad! are they being sold somewhere?
I had an older rescue male that had HUGE knots in his back. He was a sweet guy and very healthy until he passed away. They didn't seem to bother him and he loved to explore high up bookshelves... being "crippled" didn't slow him down any!
