I have recently heard of this problem, but had never heard of it before?
Is it common?
I know my snakes do not have it, but just thought a problem like this would be on more care sheets

i think its more common in hevier bodied snakes like royals and boa's. some snakes need to be put down due to it others it only effects them every so often. i think in the spider morph in royals its very common. i have seen a baby boa with it in the flesh and it wasn't a nice thing to see unfortantly it had to be put down(i will not mention the breeders name as it wasn't threr fault and they replaced it free off charge with a higher priced boa)
