One day you will "get it"

I know several people with blind snakes, kinked spine snakes, etc.

It's not about breeding, it's about caring.

I had a snake for years I named "twisty" because her spine had a 180 degree kink in it, when she crawled around the first half of her looked just fine, but the second half was upside down (hence "twisty")

She functioned just fine for almost 4 years before she died.

That was 4 years longer than she would had the breeder culled her.

I also have a snake that was born with only one eye and several runts that will never get big.

They don't seem to mind being misfits.
