The "Father Bull" is unknown but must have been an outstanding Hereford. The double calf was alive and healthy but died during birth. This calf, or calves, joined from the beginning of the neck as far as the belly, with two complete, almost perfect body frames, had but one system of vital organs. Each of the two normal heads had a food channel to one stomach and a breathing channel, or windpipe, to the one set of lungs. The two briskets, or breasts, shared on each side by these calves, contained the one set of lungs on one side and the one heart on the other side. Branching off from the one stomach and digestive system were two channels of elimination. The calf weighed approximately 85 pounds (39 kg) at birth. The over-all measurements as it stands mounted are: 42.5 inches (1,080 mm) high, 20 inches (510 mm) from tail to tail, and 18 inches (460 mm) from side to side including the front legs. The "Mother Cow" lived and was sold as a "fat cow" in July 1949. This calf was stuffed by C. J. Sanders, taxidermist, 2631 South State Street, Salt Lake City 5, Utah, who stated that it is the most unusual monstrosity he has ever worked with. Dr. A. C. Johnson, of Cedar City, Utah, stated that this was the best specimen of monstrosity in animal life that he has ever seen or heard of in his 47 years of practice as a veterinarian.
"The Dancing Calves" were owned by West and Gail Seegmiller who displayed them for many years at their Desert Pearl Cafe (no longer in existence), in Cedar City, Utah. Dr. A. C. Johnson, Dr. T. Donald Bell, William H. Lund, Dr. R. G. Williams, Dr. J. S. Prestwich, Dr. A. L. Graff, S. T. Nelson, and James Hoyle, Jr. all signed as witnesses that they saw the calf in the flesh soon after birth and knew it to be authentic. The calves and original document were donated to the Garth and Jerri Frehner Museum of Natural History on the Southern Utah University campus in Cedar City, Utah, where they are now on display. The Deformed Animals Museum of Llubí, Spain, preserves various two-headed specimens. A head mount of a two-headed calf is on display in the Museum at the Georgia State Capitol Building in Atlanta, Georgia. A two-faced calf is preserved at the Douglas County Museum in Waterville, Washington. The calf lived for ten days after birth. The Ripleys Believe It or Not! museum in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, has full body taxidermy of a two-headed calf. The Dalton Gang Museum, located in Meade, Kansas, also displays a full body taxidermy of a two-headed calf. A two-headed calf mount can be found at the Old State House in Hartford, Connecticut
A two-headed calf was born in Frankston, Texas, on February 13, 2009. Reportedly, the owner/rancher, J. R. Newman immediately took the calf to his local veterinarian for examination/treatment.
