This is a document listing different snake breeds and their specific morphs that might have issues that could affect their quality of life. It is suggested not to buy these breeds as it encourages the sellers to breed more and keep the cycle going of health issues.

Corn snake

Bloodred- Immuno-compromised and weaker immune systems in corn snakes

Sunkissed- Neurological issues/ “Stargazing syndrome” (balance is uncoordinated along with moving in general and they always tilt their head up which very often leads them to just laying on their back)

Palmetto- Enlarged eyes can lead to more common eye infections and what is called “Bug eye syndrome” where their eyes are very enlarged as a birth defect and very prone to infections.

Caramel- Enlarged hearts and sudden death rate

Striped- Enlarged hearts and weakness

Lavender- In breeding lines it is more likely for lavenders to have kinked spines and not survive getting out of the egg. If one snake is proven to not have a kinked spine after birth, then it should have no other health issues.

Ball Pythons

Spider- Neurological Issues (head wobble/ “Wobble syndrome”) and very often starving to death because they cannot aim for their food right or vomit because their body will reject the food

IMPORTANT NOTE: A lot of spider morphs have been renamed and a lot go by the “Bee” morph name now or their spider genetics are masked by another trait they were bred with

Black head x spider morphs masks the spider in them, but the genes remain and make be passed to offspring or show signs later

Super spiders are lethal to the snake

Cinnamon- Neurological issues (Similar to Spider morphs)

Super cinnamons/Super Black pastels are prone to duckbill syndrome and spine kinking

Woma- Neurological issues (Head wobble)

Super Woma morphs can by the name “Pearl” which produces Neurological issues to the point of death

Champagne- Neurological issues (Head wobble)

Champagne x Super Woma produces even more severe neurological issues

Champagne x Spider is incredibly lethal

Super champagnes are lethal

Powerball- Neurological issues (Head wobble)

Spotnose- Neurological Issues (head wobble/ “Wobble syndrome”)

Champagne x spotnose makes Neurological Issues (head wobble/ “Wobble syndrome”)

Spotnose x spider makes Neurological Issues (head wobble/ “Wobble syndrome”)

Super Butters- Eye deformities and prone to eye infections

Super Sabels and Super Black pastels- Prone to duck billing (a jaw/face deformity that can cause breathing problems) and spine kinks

Deserts- producing infertile females and most snakes have reproductive issues

Caramel Albinos- severe kinking issues and fertility issues

Piedbals mixed with Super lesser Platinums or any morphs from BEL complex- small eyes and eye deformities

Bananas/Coral Glow- Sex chromosomes are sometimes messed up and this becomes an issues in breeding, but otherwise the snake should be fine on its own 

Western/Plains Hognose

Pink Pastel Albino- Neurological issues and fertility issues

Boa constrictor

Super Motley-  Weak immune systems and won’t survive past their second birthday

Super jungle- Weak livers, infertility and most likely won’t survive to their second birthday.

Super Aztec-  Neurological Issues and balance issues

Blizzard- Lethal genes that kill them

Scoria- Neurological Issues (head wobble)

Super keywest- Will die within 2 years

Super Parsons- Will die within 2 years

RLT- Will die within 2 years

Fires- small eyes, thin and small scales

Onyx/Leopard- Prone to bursting bellies if overfed

Albino- weaker immune systems and poor genetics

Albino x Albino will often produce offspring with missing eyes and other deformities

Texas Rat Snake

Leucistic- enlarged eyes and “bug eye syndrome”

Honduran Milk Snake

Extreme hypo- enlarged hearts and sudden death

Carpet Pythons

Granite- Physical deformities

Jaguar- Neurological issues (head wobble)

Super Jaguar and ivory morphs are lethal

Tarn decided he was too good for this corner hide so it went to Mr. Milky Mims instead and this little blue man was more than happy to inhabit it.

Pinkie, our baby Nelson’s Milk Snake, (AKA Lord Pinkerton the 1st 😂), shed today! And it’s neat to zoom in and see the eye cap on the top of the shedding! @scalyadventures #scalyadventures #pinkie #nelsonsmilksnake #milksnake #babysnake #snakeshedding #scalyfriends https://www.instagram.com/p/ClSM8QPuOU1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Heya! I was wondering if you or any of your followers have had trouble with any overly anxious Nelson's Milksnakes? And if so, what did they do to help them chill out some?

How old is your milksnake? Milksnakes can be super nervous little babies, and tail-rattling, musking, and flighty behavior isn't unexpected!

For milksnakes and other kingsnakes, I find the single best thing is time and patience. Most of my kingsnakes start really calming down once they're about a year old, and until that point I don't even handle them too often!

Things you can do to help your snake feel more comfortable:

Always pick them up gently, calmly, and without hesitation. Lingering with your hand over them is very scary!

Keep handling sessions short and sweet, and end on a high note when you're both calm and having a good time. You can move to longer handling sessions as your snake grows more confident.

Make sure you're keeping your snake in a quiet, calm, low-traffic area of the house if at all possible

Place a blanket over part of the enclosure so their enclosure feels quiet, calm, and dark

Double-check your temperatures - too-high temperatures can lead to overactive, nervous snakes!

All the best! Nervous snakes almost always grow more confident with time and gentle handling.

if this doesnt go thru imma be so sad but FIXES TIE AHEM

Imagine seeing the tiniest hints of joy whenever Tighnari sees you. The way his eyes glow by just the tiniest bit, like when sunlight hits a soft meadow. His ears, always so alert for danger, prick up at the sound of your footsteps, and his tail wags just a little.

When Tighnari talks to you, everyone in Gandhara Ville can see the change. Tighnari always denies it, vehemently even, but even Collei can see how her teacher turns into a lovesick fool around you.

Your presence alone is able to save Forest Rangers from Tighnari's lectures, with how easily you're able to distract him. But don't think you get special treatment just because he likes (adores) you, even you will get a gentle flick on the forehead if you try anything dangerous.

One might think that Tighnari's weaknesses are his ears and tail, and while they certainly are sensitive, it's whether he lets you touch his hands that shows how much he trusts you. Tighnari seems rather delicate, but his hands are calloused, scarred under the gloves he wears. But he melts when you take his hands in yours, running your fingers over his knuckles and tracing his faded scars.

and lastly. in a very unserious manner.

all im saying is that tighnari's lowkey jacked. like shooting a bow is not easy like at all so. bros got muscle on them arms there.

i rest my case <3
