    I just got home from work and like i always do i check on my snakes, i open the tub to my female lesser who is about 6 months old and i noticed she had shed, so i pick her up to inspect for any stuck shed and she now has A KINK!!!!! its about 3 inches up from her vent and feels like a broken bone, what the hell could have happened?

    Can you post a picture? It is unusual for a snake to develop a kink at that age. Are you sure it was not there before?

    Picture please. I would make a vet appointment it sounds like it is time.

    Her pick is in my profile pics, tan lesser on wood background, i know it wasnt there before, i hand picked her from the clutch fresh out the egg, and she is going to the vet first thing in the morning

    She's pretty, but I think they meant a pic of the suspected kinked area.

    Calm, get the vet apointment and leave her be. If it is a broken bone or something along that messing with her is not going to help. She will settle into a position that is ok and typically they will not move much if they are hurt. I'd try to just leave her be.
