Two-faced calf stuns Kentucky farmer

/ 03:49 PM September 22, 2016

A farmer in Kentucky, USA, “did a double take” after seeing a double-faced creature residing in his farm.

It all started when farm owner Stan McCubbin thought his cow had given birth to twins. To his shock, it was a calf with twin heads. “I saw two noses. I thought it was twins and then when I saw her, I was just completely blown away,” McCubbin told WDRB-TV.

Brandy Abell McCubbin, Stan’s relative, shared photos of the calf on Facebook on Sept. 15. The McCubbin family named their calf “Lucky” simply because she was “lucky to be alive.”

“It looks like she has three eyes but she has two in one socket,” Stan told Inside Edition. “They told us she was blind in these.”

Although Lucky jaunts on the farmland, she frequently collapses due to her heavy head and poor eyesight. Despite her birth defects, Lucky is gradually recovering and the family regard her survival as a “gift from heavens.”

“Lucky took more steps today and seems to be moving forward rather than in a circle. She stood longer and ate much quicker! God has blessed us with His beautiful creation,” Brandy wrote on Facebook.

The family vows to “prolong” the life of Lucky, just like another two-faced calf who lived for 40 days in Florida.  Gianna Francesca Catolico
