The untold part of that story is that breeders breed literally thousands and thousands and thousands of turtles to get those rare mutations, discard most of the "normal ones" and sell those exotic RES for outrageous prices, and most of them, the two headed ones especially, don't live past hatchlings, especially because these "companies" don't care enough about the turtles to tell the new owners about the proper care of hatchlings.
It's really pretty disgusting in my opinion.
