HOLY COW! ’Miracle’ calf born with TWO heads

USA, Oct.5: A baby calf is being hailed a ’blessing’ after being born with two heads and surviving.Two heads, two snouts, four eyes - one brain.

The little heifer was one of eight calves born on a farm in Whiting, Vermont, on Tuesday.

A vet has determined the cute cow is perfectly healthy, explaining that she was supposed to be a twin but the egg did not separate properly.

 

 

She has not yet been named.

Farmer Kirsten Quesnel said they were excited by the delivery.

’It just was something different for us today,’ Quesnel told

 

’Just like with humans we have some abnormalities with animals and animal births and this just happened to be one of them.’

Because the calf only has one brain, each head mimics the other.

So when she is feeding, her other side is sucking too.

She is capable of eating with both mouths.

’Call it a miracle or call it unique, call it what you will, we’re just blessed with this and we’ll see where it goes from here,’ Quesnel said.

’We had the vet take a look at her earlier today to check all of her signs and she seems to be doing very well.’

In many cases, calves with deformities such as these don’t survive after being born.
