The problem with the sale is that ebay does not allow the sale of live animals on their website...AND the idiot in charge of the aquarium thinks that, although it's a female, one head is male, and the other head is female. Fire his butt immediately!

Still shaking my head on THAT one....

look closely at the picture, one head has a moustache and the other is wearing lipstick. obviously male and female heads. unfortunatley, it will be impossible to breed this male to the female and produce more 2heads since they can only kiss.

Well, if it's born with both sets it could do itself.

Mike Wilbanks at constrictors .com had a black eyed lucy for 200K. That was a while ago, and he doesnt have it anymore. In fact rumor has it that exact snake was offered for sale to another breeder for 60K along with a het *(fire).

davester Jan 03, 2006 02:54 PM

Yes that's wild, but you no the funny thing is it will probably end up selling for the fifteen they bought it for if someone is dumb enough to think it is recessive!!

You know what they say "Two heads are better than one!"

What's really funny is going to ebay and doing a search on "two headed snake". You can find tons of people selling the photo of that ratsnake along with a poem or piece of artwork of theirs. People are actually bidding on the stuff too.

But its dead. Its in alcohol...

I got this snake from a guy. It was alive and doing fine.
Then he asked a friend to take care of his snakes. The friend
killed the two headed boa baby to be "humane".

Circusfan Jan 04, 2006 01:28 AM

Hi Jonas, Any chance you would want to sell the two headed boa? I have a friend who collects oddities that are preserved. Please let me know. Thanks.

"The friend killed the two headed boa baby to be "humane". "

I'd have had to call Guido on that one.....just to be humane with the "friend".
