two headed snakes

hello.
I was just wondering that two headed snakes (i know they are rare) but do they actually survive as long as normal corns because they look pretty cool!
 
Not usually, from what I understand.

Two-headedness is a case of incomplete twinning - an animal that was supposed to be twins that doesn't correctly separate at the proper stage. Because of this, though the double heads might be the only outwardly visible sign of the twinning, there are often internal problems that go along with it.

There are some two-headed snakes out there that seem to have had relatively long lives, but from what I've read, it seems like most of them just fail to thrive properly as hatchlings.
 
two headed

Hello yep they are really some thing Else but like it was said not real good luck on them making it. only like one in ever 10'000 or born and most of them don't make it out of the egg. then the ones that do don't do well. Can't tell you how many out of the 10.000 do make it but it's not many. As you can see we got one and it started out great was eating and sheding fine. Then a few months in he stopped eating and none of the tricks worked to get him going again. :cry: .but you can see the pick there he was nice formed a lot do not come out as good as him. If you get one good luck hope your luck is better then mine was.
