Brian Barczyk, the animal vlogger who goes by Snakebytestv online, posted a video of the so-called "miracle bearded dragon" on Instagram, where people have been busy recommending names for the two heads.
A report from The Daily Star specified that the said creature had been born with a pair of entirely functional heads.

The vlogger travels the world by documenting a great range of animals and has gained more than three million subscribers on YouTube. However, this lizard may be his most remarkable discovery yet.
In the said video clip, the left head of the bearded dragon is seen feasting on an insect from a pair of tongs.

Names Needed
The creator of the video verified that both heads can consume food and that the defect of the lizard does not appear to have affected its mobility.
Barczyk wrote the two heads need names on the said social media post. They're eating right off tongs and "appear to be doing amazing."
He also said one would think mobility would be hindered although they're making it all across their enclosure, climbing all things and objects.
Reptile enthusiasts were fast to give the animal vlogger name suggestions, with Ant and Dec, Salt and Pepper, Thelma and Louise, and Bread and Butter among the popular selections.
Another pair of suggested names was Barf and Belch, the name of the two-headed dragon in the movie, How to Train Your Dragon by Dreamworks.
2-Headed Animals
In 20212, HuffPost reported about Todd Ray, who owns what is believed to be the biggest collection of the world's two-headed animals, exhibiting many at the "Venice Beach Freakshow in Los Angeles."
Even though Ray already owns a two-headed, six-legged bearded dragon he calls Pancho and Lefty, turning two years old in May, he could not turn down the chase of owning another one, his second.
Therefore, the latest addition to his multi-headed and multi-limbed menagerie is named Jeckyl and Hyde. The newcomer is akin to Pancho and Lefty, a two=headed, six-legged bearded dragon, although younger and relatively smaller.
Ray said they are around five months old. They were born in San Diego, and he heard about them, got in touch with their wonder, and has been his for around two months.
2 Functioning Heads in 1 Body
Jeckyl and Hyde may have owned two heads, although they are not of two minds roaming around their cage.
According to Ray, Hyde is actually "a parasitic twin." He's coming out of the side of Jeckyl, and his movement is limited from the chest up.
Ray initially thought the two were sharing a heart, but now, he believes each has one. Nonetheless, Jekyll is doing most of the digesting.
The collection owner also said Jekyll is doing all the eating while Hyde is only drinking water. He added he thinks Hyde was once eating crickets, and "that's it."
Rare Species
The All Famous website said one in 25 million chances of a two-headed bearded dragon is likely to survive if born.
There is no official definition for a bearded dragon in particular. Any individual dragon with a rare size or color pattern can be labeled as "fancy."
The term "fancy" may not be a form, although a category for each morph and a species considered unique or rare.
