Look at these!

Two-headed snakes? No way! If it was an angry snake, getting bit might kind of hurt after a while! Two heads are better than one . . .

Oh no!

Well, first off there are no cornsnakes in your post so that's the wrong board for this to be in.
Beyond that, snakes with two heads generally suffer quite a bit, few of them reaching adulthood- their neck vertebrates tend to break quite a bit- all in all it's a pretty pitiful existence... one I wouldn't be so excited about anyways.

I'm sure - but nature is fascinating.

Thats pretty cool! I breed garters and have seen adult two headed snakes. Sure there can be side effects but don't listen to Oren! You didn't mean to upset people. Welcome to the forum nice picture!

For just $20,000, you can have a two-headed albino hognose.

It probably won't live long, but it could. This guy lived for 8 years.

And also on Fauna, a two-headed bearded dragon that sold for only $1500.

No one is upset, it's a fact that such mutations cause a deal of pain and suffering to the animal and advocating how supposedly cool it is makes people think it's desirable.
Your post however earned you yet again a spot in my ignore list, and this time I think I am not going to repeat the mistake of removing it. Gosh, I have yet to see a useful post out of you, and I don't see that changing any time soon.

Oren you are not looking past wha you WANT tot hink of me. I am glad I am on your ignore list

I really don't think it makes people want to buy a two-headed snake; I certainly don't. I assume that most people on this board are responsible pet-owners who have some level of interest in snakes' care and well-being and wouldn't purchase a two-headed snake just because they thought it looked "cool" sans some serious research.

Call me naiive, but I was unaware that such a thing existed.

However, thought it was fascinating and wanted to share. I didn't mean to advocate the purchase of one of these snakes, and I seriously doubt anyone's going to be purchasing that $20,000 two-headed boa just because I shared some pictures of a couple of curious, mutated animals that came unexpectedly out of a breeder's batch.

I really think some common courtesy would be beneficial to some people here.

Ha! HA! HA!


Anywho,
Two headed snakes are rare and fascinating to see.
