    2 headed plains found

    was watching fox news....showed a baby 2 headed plains garter found in Iowa!!!!

    MyFox Utah | Fox 13 Hot Shots, September 11

    very cool...hope it survives!!!! looks like the head on the left isnt as functional as the one on the right...appears to be missing an eye, no tongue flicking..but cool looking!!!!

    Looks like it is doomed already.

    wow.. its neat and all... but the other head looks lifeless... and the snake overall looks to be in pretty bad shape... I doubt it will make it. What was that mark on its back toward the end?

    not sure what the mark is...does look emaciated...not very good, I think his chances are real slim....too bad one of us "experts" can't get the snake and save it!!

    unfortunately its just a vid of the snake...the fox news did a story on it...thought it would have all that info too, but not.... just said a guy in Iowa found it, took it to the news to show it off....

    This happens more than you'd think.

    Here is a two headed VBB produced by a woman on the east coast of Canada (Melanie)



    and some garter photos from Don Pogue:






    He is the man when it comes to Garters in Canada (Indigos too but that's a whole different game)
