The two parent could be adopting the two girls who are born on the same day to different biological mothers.
Or, they could be two test tube babies implanted in the mother.
technically they'd be fraternal twins then. What he has is the only good answer.
Jake it says the same mother you silly moo
It could be a human girl and a female dog, having the same "parents"... Don't get me wrong here though
couldnt they be born on the same day of the year in DIFFERENT years? the riddle doesnt specify that...
whoopsy, i read the question wrong.. reading faast sucks at times
this is too similar with one about two boys.
Jake the teaser says "... to the same mother..."

Forget what the others say this is a great teaser!!
I was going with a play on words. Thinking they were both born on a Tuesday that same year (or a Wednesday, Thursday, whatever) since it said day and not date.
nice
i like it
i like it
that was easy but i knew it.i had this substitute teacher who would say:"a question is never hard if you know the answer".perfectly true in every way.
oooh tricky
I tried submitting the same teaser. i guess u beat me to it.
oooo...u got me. o well, keep the good teasers commin'!
HAHAHAHA
i
i
love
it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey, just a thought-
would them being born on the same day of different months on the same year be a valid answer?
like one is born on Januray 7th 2006 and one is born on December 7th 2006
or does "the same day" imply the same month?

I thought this one was a lil confusing i dont' really get it! but o well!
And surely they could be two of a set of quadruplets, quintuplets, sextuplets, septuplets, octuplets, nonuplets, decuplets, etc.
1 could of came out first but good 1
i was guessing that they were born on different months...but that is also an answer, nice one
I agree with the others who also thought that with the wording of day and year and no mention of month, they certainly could have been born on the same day and same year in different months 9-11 months apart. I also agree that two girls part of triplets are fraternal twins. Teaser has good entertainment value tho, as it has caused a lot of thinking even if different from the answer.
great one!
i got it right away
impossible
I guessed they were born from parents who had hired two different "hired moms". That's what newfangled medical techniques makes to good ol' teasers! A very nice one!
good for a teaser
Alternate answer: they were born during two different years.
OMG this is so easy and so old. Oh well
got it.. but actually i've read a teaser like this before..
this is old, but still good...
mercedes13, you need to reread the question...it clearly states that these two girls were born "IN THE SAME YEAR".

It never says they were born in the same MONTH, now did it?
hey mercedes it says dey wer born same year i got correct but it waz 2 E-Z
Same day, same year => Sunday 4th January 2009, Sunday 20th September 2009. You should change day to date.
I'm usually good at these, but you really got me!
I bet all of u guys who are coming up with different answer got it WRONG!
O_O they could be two of a set of quadruplets... or qunituplets... or... octuplets??
I agree with cutieluck. They don't have to be twins.
I just looked at the title and boom I knew the answer.
Way too easy!
i guesses they were born on a different time, cuz the teaser says nothing bout he time
