Is kinking genetic?

I saw an ad for a snake that had some tail kinks and was offered as a pet only for a good deal. The seller said that this snake should NOT be bred. It got me wondering... I thought that kinks in snakes was more of a development issue in the egg. Maybe associated with temperature? I am NOT a breeder. I am just wondering. Can spinal or tail kinking be genetically passed on to offspring?
