I have had my Corn Snake for little over a year now. She has been fine except for an unusual tail. Her body suddenly gets smaller at the tail and the scale pattern changes. I'm not sure if this is the just the way the this snake is, or if it is an injury. The tail hasn't seemed to grow with the rest of her body which makes the tail smaller and smaller and makes the sudden change more severe over time.
Whats going on? Here are some pics:

(This picture shows the sudden change in the scale pattern.)
Oh and, this snake is about 1.5 years old now and she looks a little on the small side! I feed her every 7 days "Small Mice". They are pretty decently sized and theres no reason why she would be small.
Is this snake small for her age?
