    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Gotta take the bad with the good. *SEMI GRAPHIC*

Well out of my 16 egg clutch I have 15 healthy babies that all emerged over the past few days. One looked a little strange in the egg so I decided to help it out. Well needles to say it was DIE. This is what I saw when I opened it up.

Crazy man. Too bad it didn't make it. I've always thought it would be cool to have a 2-headed snake.
 
Looked like it had more issues then two heads going on. I had one emerge this year that was cork screwed. It looked like a frickin spring. I had to cut its egg for it, it too looked weird in the egg but I left it. The darn thing somehow managed to emerge (have no idea how it moved) and was just sitting next to the egg still alive the day after I cut the egg. Needless to say, it went straight to the kingsnake. I am sorry that you had a loss, it always sucks.
 
Over on cornsnakes.com there was just a two headed baby born alive a few weeks ago. Idk the state of the animal now but I couldn't believe it was alive. that is so crazy though. I'm glad this little guy didn't suffer though. Breaks my heart no matter how old or what kind of animal it is. Circle of life though.
 
Think quality of life and it's probably better for the snake that it didn't live. Interesting though, thanks for posting - no abnormalities at all amongst the others?
 
...whoa. I've read things about two-headed snakes living for a decent amount of time (longer than expected anyway) - - but I've never seen one fresh out of the egg before. Too bad it apparently had other things going on, but I agree with Helen, quality of life has to be considered.

Thanks a lot for posting, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's never seen photos like that before. Hope all the other babies are doing well! Pictures? :)
