Exclamation 2 heads are not always better than one!

An egg from a Motley Snow Corn I manually pipped last night contained this lil mutation, Mark
P.S. BTW if its still alive later it will be euthanized

Most likely a twin or 2 embrosin the same egg "gone bad" so to speak. Not successfully remaining seperate but merging together during development. THX Mark
