That's pretty cool. I think I've seen an article about it once before in regards to another set of twins.
Twins Layton (right) and Kaydon Richardson (left) from Middlesbrough, are officially one in a million after one was born black and the other one white.
A pair of British twin boys has been born with different skin color, a rare genetic occurrence according to experts.
In an interview with Britain's Sky News program, mother Kerry Richardson said that the boys were both born white but as they've gotten older one of the boys got darker and the other lighter.
Today, she says, the twins attract attention wherever they go.
Richardson is of mixed race, with Nigerian and English heritage, while the father is white.
A genetics expert at Oxford University says such births are rare, as the genes that cause skin color normally mix together. In this case, he says, it appears the genes for skin color didn't combine for some reason and the boys may have inherited different genetic codes from their mother.

Yup, twin girls. Its was about 4 or 5 months ago I think
Wow, that is cool. I never even realized that was possible.

Sheeit. This is nothing. I've seen the same phenomenon in just one person:
I had a girlfriend once whose mother was white and her father was black. She looked black, but her brother looked white. They weren't twins, though...she was several years older than he was. You could definitely tell they had the same parents though. Same facial features.
Talk about your all time irony...Sheeit. This is nothing. I've seen the same phenomenon in just one person:

Unreal... how does one go from being a good looking dude to monstrosity in the lapse of what? 20 years? I mean, I know how, I just can't understand whySheeit. This is nothing. I've seen the same phenomenon in just one person:
How could we get thru the Halloween Season without a good gawk at Michael?

I wonder which one will be able to jump higher.
Well, if you want to go there, they should have realized something was up even before their skin started to change.
Just goes to show how much skin color is given way too much importance when it's really just a superficial detail...both scientifically and in the figurative sense.
I don't think most people when getting a dog attempt to judge it by by it's color, yet that's exactly what is done with people.
Maybe..but I think these twins are gonna walk to the beat of their own drum...
Note which one is holding the other one down.
I wonder if it'll make shopping for clothes difficult?
Baby Gap or Baby Phat?
