I'm pretty sure that is a Black Pastel.

I agree as long as he eats i dont mind having a hanicap snake :) I just hope he can eat with his neck like that. I have tried to feed him but i think he still a little in shock from the move so i will give him a few more days and try again.

Give him a week :) or at least 5 days with no handling. That will give him time to get used to his surroundings and get a little more settled in.

Poor little lamb. Somebody sure didn't care much about what happened to him. :(
I am however glad that despite the fact that he came to you under rather unpleasant circumstances, you are willing to do what you can for him.
I agree a vet visit is in order, just to rule out any immediate problems. It would be best if you can separate the snakes, all other things aside, he'll be more comfortable by himself since he's not in the best shape already.
It could take him a week or two before he's settled enough to eat, so try not to fret about that too much just yet. If the vet gives a clean bill of health under the circumstances, I think with a little time to adjust and get a few decent meals in him, he'll be a beautiful addition to your family.
Don't hesitate to ask us for help, even though we can be grumpy sometimes, we are a pretty knowledgeable lot. ;)
