Enter the mutation bashers??

Mark my words: This is what will happen if we keep breeding Splits and dilutes. (Something along those lines maybe?)

Hi Tintola,

Should I put you down for 3 or 4 pairs of Dilutes that we will breed this year

Hook, line & sinker.

I've seen a 2-headed lamb, calf, mouse & human, so it can't be all that rare in nature. As the article says, long-term survival in the wild is another issue. With the frequency of double-yolked eggs, 2-headed birds should concievably be not that rare as well. This is the 1st one I've seen photos of though. Bloody wierd specimen. Thanks for posting.

OMG Thanks Tiaris. I'm glad someone realized that my post was all tongue in cheek.

By its coloration, this two-headed snake is very likely the end result of years of mutation production

Its survival in the wild would be extremely fraught. It apparently only eats two headed birds




And . .

That there are no such things as three 'l' . . lllamas

Just love a bit of nonsense

Thank you for your kind offer but, no. Should you produce some splits like the one in the picture that I posted then I might be interested.
