ricordea with 3 mouths?

I recently purchased a single orange ricoreda mushroom. I noticed that it has three mouths, 2 white and one bright green. it eats well through all of them. does this mean it will be splitting into three seperate polyps soon or is this just some bizzare mutation? Do I need to feed each mouth while it is a single polyp, or will just one mouth feed the whole thing?
During feeding time, if one mouth devours its food first, it will stretch over and steal from the others. very interesting to watch.

Thanks for any input!
