    Slightly curved spine??
    Im going to look at a normal ball tommorow. I talked to the guy and he said that when you straighten her out she has a slight "S" to her spine. he didnt say how bad it was just that it was "slight" and that it doesnt effect her. According to him he took her to the pet store I use for my info and they said not to worrie about it. What should I look for whit the spine? I know to look for mites, scale rot, gumes and look at the vent. She is about 4 years old and a virgin. Im getting her for $60 if she doesnt have any issues that will effect her.

    It could be a kink. The snake was probably born with it, unless it fell or something. I'm glad the owner actually told you about it though, most people would not say a word because they just want to sell it.

    Ya. You could tell he cared about her but couldnt afford to keep her as he has 2 others. After he told me about it he offered his smaller male if I would rather him. Him and his girl just wanted it to go to a good home.

    Well if she is 4...then it probably doesn't affect her. It might affect her if you choose to breed her..as at that point the pressure of the eggs might be dangerous for her. Either way if you get her.....I personally would take her to the vet to find out more information about it. But that is just me and I am a little on the anal side....lol
