Freak Twin Lamb
A lamb with six legs and seven feet has been born on the property of Mr Eon Fraser, at Puahue, near Te Awamutu. The lamb, which was one of twins, was born alive, but it was deemed wise later to kill it. The extra legs were situated in the vicinity of the normal back legs, while the tail," which was one and a half inches long, was in the middle of the spine.
