iv noticed a kind of kink in my snake recently that wasn't there before. I thought at first it was just a lump from his food but that was about a month ago. It just looks like a part of his body is ever so slightly bent. He has always been a grump when hes handled but he seems more so lately. It also could be that i haven't handled him in two weeks and isn't use to it anymore. any thoughts?

How's your ASPEN
Hmmm is it possible that snakes get tomers? :shrugs::shrugs: I dont really know for sure !
ok heres the best i could do with photos, you can see the lumps and the clearn unevenness of his body. I also noticed when he was breathing that where his lung are his body is almost caving in when he breaths out like in the area of his lungs he body get scary thin. Iv called vets and there no specialist around here should i bring him to just a normal vet?

May be you could ask Kathy Love on this forum. She's a really great person to go to with issues like this. Maybe she can give you her opinion? I would try to find a reptile vet asap! Especially if the problem maybe getting worse, or if you think he has any discomfort when you try to handle him. It is pretty noticeable, it may be a tumor or possibly some obstruction in his body. I have no idea, but I would get it looked at by a professional as fast as you can.

Lovin' My Snakes!
How old is he? How long have you had him? What's his weight and length? How often do you feed him? What do you feed him?
