Rare snake surprises breeders by having two heads capable of controlling the body equally

A two-headed ball python was born at a breeding facility in Eugene, Oregon (USA), and surprised breeders by demonstrating that both brains can equally control the shared body — something rare, since in most cases of dicephaly one head tends to be dominant. Both heads can drink water, flick their tongues, and react to touch independently, with the body responding to each one. The breeder Justin Stewart, 36 years old, told Creatorzine that he doesn't know if the heads are aware of each other, but stated: "They don't seem to mind it."
