We discuss the fragmentation of a heavy quark to a baryon containing two heavy quarks of mass [ital m][sub [ital Q]][much gt][Lambda][sub QCD]. In this limit the heavy quarks first combine perturbatively into a compact diquark with a radius small compared to 1/[Lambda][sub QCD], which interacts with the light hadronic degrees of freedom exactly as does a heavy antiquark. The subsequent evolution of this [ital QQ] diquark to a [ital QQq] baryon is identical to the fragmentation of a heavy antiquark to a meson. We apply this analysis to the production of baryons of the form [ital ccq], [ital bbq], and [ital bcq].
