This six-legged lamb is one-day old; at the time of the photo, a vet had recommended removing two of the limbs if the lamb made it to one week old, but there's no further information on the current status of the beast.

I dunno. Doesn't look like a lot of meat on that one.

Apparently, the government's secret animal breeding projects are going as planned. Next comes the Giraffoceros. :lol:

I can't helpbut wonder if it survives, what kind of life will he have and what will they do with him.

Very odd. And interesting.

i wanna see video of how he moves--does he have mobility in all of the legs, can he move them all independently? baby goats and lambs are so ridiculously adorable when they're little and kicking up their heels and running and jumping all over!! i'm going looking for video.....

Mmmmm, lambsect.

They should watch out for that one. He's already "devoured" his own wombmate. Or most of him, anyway.
