What’s rare about this particular snake is that at seven months old, it’s already lived significantly longer than all the other sets of conjoined twins.
“It’s very rare that you hatch one at all, and then it’s extremely rare when they live,” Emberton says.

According to Emberton, the snake doesn’t miss a meal and, surprisingly, doesn’t have too many issues shedding.
