Ralphs Kinked Caramel.

Ralph is the man in my opinion,inbreeding for morphs always causes proplems but thats cool to know what has what proplems.

You can say that again!

I've seen a few pics of kinked caramels but wow, those are some kinks.

Kudos to Ralph for even posting that video and another for taking care of the little guys. :gj:

I'm glad he talked about the possible tail crop in carmel albinos. I've known about the kinking, but I wouldn't have thought to be really examine the tail so closely in case some unscrupulous breeder took off the very tip.

Question, if they tend to kink then why breed them?

Why take the chance of having a snake that has some retardation?

If you and a spouse have had 3 children with disabilities are you going to try for a 4th?

Doesn't seem fair or right IMO.

Probably because there are more non-kinked caramels than there are kinked ones.

Ditto.

Very cool vid...I'm with Ralph; if the snake appears healthy and will have good quality of life, why put it down? He's a snake freak at heart. =)

Wow, that is somehting else.
I have never heard of any problems like that.
What did he mean about the spiders? Do spiders have a problem with that to?
