Ed, Winky is whom I was speaking of in my post. She is actually close to 1100 grams, and eats like a freight train. Definitely one of the sweetest snakes in the collection. Also, I plan on breeding her this year, as I don't think her deformity is genetic at all. We will see how her offspring do. I am not sure if she will make it to size this year, but maybe. If not, she will definitely breed next year.

I believe that some deformities just happen. These can be anything from minor overbites, small eyye, no eye and bent tail tip. I am not sure what causes them, but they only pop up randomely, or sometimes in an entire clutch. Her condition seemed like a fluke, since no other animal in the clutch, or no other animal from her father has ever had that problem. I guess breeding her is the only way to find out, and you know how much I like my science projects. These"science projects" that people do are so paramount for the future learning of our hobby.
