Guess I just need some validation over here...

Thanks! It's why we got her! It's actually squished and not just cut off.

Here's some pics:

The tail will pose no problem to breeding.

How can you be so sure? You don't know what's going on just beneath what the naked eye can see. A deformity like that in that area is kind of a big deal, possible spinal compression, oviducts could potentially be messed up, it's not something that you would want to turn a blind eye to. Like, I'm sure a male would be able to work just fine with that but actually pushing an egg out could hazardous.

I'll definitely be contacting some bigger breeders and looking for more opinons, but I think I'm going to wait until closer to the end of the season when they're not so busy. I don't want to risk her, she's definitely my dad's favorite, so if there's any consensus reached that it'll be bad to breed her, I won't do it. It's not worth it.

i'm sure you could take her to a reptile vet and get an xray done.
