What are these bumps on the back of our new Gray Banded King??

Ok. Looking at the pics, it looks bigger. It's hard to believe that would go unnoticed with a physical inspection, but I know it can happen. Generally, in the case of spinal deformation, it does not go away.....at least that I am aware of. I am not a vet, but I'll stick with my diagnosis as I first called it. As long as you are happy with the snake and it is eating, it's not really a problem. I would however, recommend not breeding it if that was your plan. Before I go bad mouthing the breeder, I will say, we sometimes get in a hurry with things and they do get passed over. If this were my animal and I did notice it the problem, it would have been a free animal.

Again, as long as you are ok with the animal/situation, there shouldn't be a problem. If you are not happy, I would suggest trying to find the breeder for a refund or replacement.

Good luck.

OK. Thanks for all your help. My GF and the vet should be meeting in a bit so i'll post up what she says when i hear. I bet your right tho.

AWW! What a darling! I hope everything works out for you and your snake!

Thank you :) She is a cutie!!

So the Vet confirmed what Brandon Osborne had said. She said the snake looks fine otherwise and has no problems moving, is very active and all. she said it will be harder to notice over time and that it wont effect the longevity of the snakes life.

thanks again for your help.
