>I wonder is he drinking twice as much water as he needs?
This. Correct feeding is like the #1 problem with these two headed lizards, you basically have to feed each head half as much but they'll both think they're being fed half as much as they should be.
They don't count the water, dumbass.
If they're full they'll feel full and satiated, although possibly only one or neither can recieve/process that sensation.
>they're functional
Too bad we can't breed for this
A race of quadruped birds is what the planet needs
I worked on a team developing multilegged poultry for a certain multinational fast food chain. The result? Octochickens. Problem is, one killed and ate all the others. After that, we were all too afraid to go into its enclosure to feed it so it died of starvation. The creepy thing just stayed in this one corner, waving its pedipalps at us from the ceiling where it had made its web.
The eggs, and it laid hundreds, weren't very good, either. Overall, a failure.
It doesn't, they force feed it. The last update I heard of was from over a week ago, IIRC. The calf was several weeks old at that point and hadn't yet stood up (Calves should be up and running around by day 2 otherwise you've got a problem) being spoon-fed. Of course the people advocating for it to be kept alive are all ARAs.
I assume they are usually instaculled, BUT in india freaks are seen as reincarnated higher beings or some shit so they try hard to keep them alive.
Or I'm full of shit.
>Nah, they chopped off its face in front of the brain, by the looks of it. >On September 10, 1945, farmer Lloyd Olsen of Fruita, Colorado, United States, was planning to eat supper with his mother-in-law and was sent out to the yard by his wife to bring back a chicken. Olsen chose a five-and-a-half-month-old Wyandotte chicken named Mike. The axe removed the bulk of the head, but missed the jugular vein, leaving one ear and most of the brain stem intact.[2][3][4]
Most of his brain was gone, he had no higher functions and was running on autonomic functions.
They're weirdly common in reptiles, but they tend not to last very long, and certainly not in the wild, where even fit young get weeded out pretty quickly.
>Human conjoined twins have confirmed that they're miserable.
Nah, that depends on the arrangement. If you're a craniopagus twin, i.e. your head's stuck to your twin's, that's no doubt gotta suck major ass. Imagine if your twin had bad breath and you had to live with them breathing on you 24/7. Parapagus twins who are connected side by side usually seem pretty happy, though, at least for the ones who make it to adulthood. I'd wager that Abby and Brittany Hensel, who are from a loving family in a small town, are college graduates doing a job they love, and are both married (to the same guy, no less) are far happier than your average anon.
Snakes are pretty dumb, in poisonous species one head will bite the other thinking it's a threat and kill itself.
They found a two headed fossil once. Once.
Cool, can't believe they never covered 2 headed dinos in JP
Every time I see this, I wonder is he drinking twice as much water as he needs?
Or has each head learned to drink only 1/2 as much?

I feel bad for finding this video cute
you shouldn't
because it is!
Drinking too much water isn't so bad though, right?
They don't count the water, dumbass.
If they're full they'll feel full and satiated, although possibly only one or neither can recieve/process that sensation.
>Are two-headed animals friends?
Only one is.
They're more than friends. They're family.
No, but four legged birds are.
Somehow… it looks fitting?
Babby Gryphon
Less cool but still really cool. It's nice when you get to figure out the inspiration for mythos stuff.
Polymelia isn't cool, they can't even use the legs and they usually just become deformed and are dead weight.
>Double it

imagine twice as many drumsticks and thighs

… Do tell more…
I'm horrified but curious
Finally, a bird/bird gryphon.
I must live in world of fricking darkness because I swear to God a tzimisce frickin guy to that thing
Have they put her down yet?
Jesus. How does it even eat/drink properly?
It doesn't, they force feed it. The last update I heard of was from over a week ago, IIRC.

I thought it could stand up, it just doesn't do it for too long.
>ARAs
big tiddy anime mommies?
Animal rights activists you coomer
ara ara get dorrah
Why does this seem to happen to cows more often than other animals?
because we breed a frickton of them and birds are immune to it for some reason
I assume they are usually instaculled, BUT in india freaks are seen as reincarnated higher beings or some shit so they try hard to keep them alive.

The two-headed cow here
is a dairy shorthorn (I think?) somewhere in the US. Unless I've somehow missed the news, afaik they're still forcing her to live.
>Are two-headed animals friends?
No heads are better than two heads.
God totally frickin necromanced that frickin chicken
Nah, they chopped off its face in front of the brain, by the looks of it.

Nah. They're a bit two-faced.
Is there any actual record of things with this condition thriving or at least surviving in the wild?
They're weirdly common in reptiles, but they tend not to last very long, and certainly not in the wild, where even fit young get weeded out pretty quickly.
Two for the price one so of course
No. They're prone to health problems and a low quality of life. Human conjoined twins have confirmed that they're miserable.
Humans are miserable even with one head.
Right, now imagine you have two on one person.

What do you think the sex is like…
Very… loud…
moaning in stereo
with me specifically, i'd be disappointing two girls at the same time
no that was a photoshop, they are good christian girls
>i'd be disappointing two girls at the same time
Good God anon
>(to the same guy, no less)
Well I can't exactly imagine them getting married to two separate guys.
didnt they do porn at one point
Lol wouldn't it automatically be two points?
Not just a picture of them giving a blowjob
Wasn't that determined to be a fake?
