Conjoined twins in Equestria? Mixed races

[ManaMinori 4,145]

We've gotten to  see a lot of illnesses in Equestria (mostly in the Flim-Flam centered episodes, but also outside of them, with incurable diseases like cutie pox, Blue Flu, Swamp Fever); we've seen surgical procedures in episodes such as "Where the Apple Lies", we've seen birth defects, such as in Scootaloo being a flightless species of birb horse, and we've seen the possibility of twin siblings, such as in the case of Aloe and Lotus, and Pound and Pumpkin Cake- along with them being born both pegasus and unicorn among Earth Pony parents.

 

So do you guys think we'll see the appearance of conjoined twins in Equestria, who just so happen to be half unicorn and half pegasus, and perhaps get mistaken for an alicorn (sans the earth pony parts)? What do you think they would identify themselves as?

Well considering that the chances of having conjoined twins is estimated between 1 in 49,000 to 1 in 189,000, with half being stillborn and an additional third dying within 24 hours, I don't think we will be seeing any.

Abby and Brittany Hensel are probably the most well known conjoined twins today. They clearly have seperate identities and have lived relatively normal and productive lives, having learned how to drive, graduated from college, and gone on to become teachers. If we were ever to see conjoined twins in the show, I think they would emulate these two. There is the risk however that backlash could be recieved so I don't think Hasbro would consider it.

If one of them were a Pegasus and the other a unicorn, I'm not sure they'd be able to fly. It might work if the one that's a Pegasus has full control, but if both did then I think they'd be stuck on the ground because of how complicated being in sync and maintaining control would be.

I don't think we'll see conjoined twins in Equestria.

That wouldn't be possible since conjoined twins are identical twins joined in utero and it isn't possible for identical twins to be different races.

We won't see conjoined twins because it's a horrible and quite honestly disgusting deformity. Light hearted shows aimed at young kids (like MLP) doesn't usually feature things like that.

I doubt there will be conjoined twins in Equestria.
