Hundreds of people all over Dong Nai flocked to a farm in Bien Hoa City to catch a glimpse of a six-legged calf that was born two weeks ago.
Six-legged calf named Do La (Dollar)
This young calf has 4 legs like any other calf, but the major difference are its extra two which are growing alongside the belly from the front of its chest. The hooves on these two extra legs are developing normally, but the legs do not seem to touch the ground at all.
D.T.H is the owner of the farm and was the one who helped deliver the odd calf. He said that the extra legs have not caused any trouble for the calf, and on the contrary, this special calf is very healthy and has shown no sign of being disadvantaged by having the extra legs. He seems to be very mobile and moves around swiftly, even appearing more alert than other calves.
Over the past two weeks, the amount of people who came to his farm to see the calf was so overwhelming that H. and his family had no time to greet the people. They have since decided not to receive anyone.
According to D., H.’s sister, many people have offered to buy the odd calf, but H’s family has not yet decided whether to accept any offer. The reason behind the calf’s special name “Do La” is because some people were willing to pay a lot of US dollars to have the calf.
Despite the extra legs, the calf seems to move about a lot more swiftly than the other normal calves.
