Is this a good trade??

Can someone explain what the
kink issue is with caramels?
As a novice this intrigues me
and should be mentioned for
any future lurkers in the thread..

Caramels are highly prone to kinking (mild to severe spinal deformities)

Some other morphs have other issues/defects, there are several threads regarding those topics.

Thank you, by chance is there a stickied
thread that has a list or countdown with
the morph names and the genetic issues?
I think this is a great idea for a topic here,
if one isn't made can you point me to where
it's being discussed in detail? I can't find any.

To keep my contribution here on this thread's
topic, I personally wouldn't make the trade
given the genetic kink risk and the potential
of your beautiful snake. Good luck everyone!

Yeah I wouldn't go for it either. I'm on the bandwagon and staying away from caramels myself.
