CAMPBELLSVILLE: Visitors to a central Kentucky farm may do a double-take when they see the newest addition: a two-faced calf.

Stan McCubbin of Campbellsville told WDRB-TV that he thought he had twins when he first saw the calf on Friday, but quickly realized he had something far more unusual.

The female calf has two noses, two mouths and four eyes, though the middle two eyes don't function. Although she can walk, the McCubbins say she ends up going in circles and falling over.

McCubbin's wife, Brandy, said their 5-year-old daughter, Kenley, named the calf Lucky because she's lucky to be alive.
