As long as he can function otherwise he should be fine.

 
Should be good (unless food gets stuck in his thorax...j/k :lol: ).

At least he looks like he should be able to feed himself okay! I've had males with worse 'front-end' problems still mate successfully.

Yeah, he'll be fine! :p I had a Chinese nymph that had a similar deformity just south of this thorax, so that his abdomen pointed straight up! When he ate, and his gut filled, it would straighten out for a while then pop up again, so I always knew when he was hungry! He molted successfully to adulthood.
