We were cleaning up behind our office and found this little guy, an Eastern King. It feels like its spine has been broken in 2 places and healed, or very bad kinks but not twists. Unless the damage was recent, it seems to be getting along OK. It has shiny scales as if it just shed. Sorry for the bad photos, all I had was my phone.

I am going to take a few live pinks to work on Monday. If its still there, it is going to get a nice treat. If you count from the head, in the last photo, the 6th complete band, you can see the first damaged area to the spine.
