A farmer in Georgia was recently shocked to find that one of his sheep had given birth to a lamb with six legs. The Georgian found himself the talk of the town among pet insurance customers that had never seen anything like it.
The piebald lamb has four legs at the front and two hind legs and appears to have at least partial control of every limb.
Vet Auto Zardiashvili said that the most probable likelihood of the six-legged animal is that mutation could have occurred during conception as they have been twins but then the embryos were united.
"I have been asking the other shepherds, but none of them remember such a case. There were three-legged lambs, one-eyed, but not six-legged. The lamb eats well, but moves with difficulty," the lamb's owner Abadzhanov Albert was reported as saying.
