Kinks 
Corn snake hatchlings are generally all disease free when they hatch from the egg. Some do have defects called kinks that are caused by environmental factors (temperature and moisture) during incubation. I hope this solves alot of questions about kinks and how snakes get them.

Kinks
i don’t beleive that kinks go away, due only because it is a birth defect.

U wont know she even had them.

Kinks
Kinks can also be genetic......
A reason why kinked snakes shouldn’t be bred....
