[QUOTE="Mark Reynolds, post: 1807059, member: 43196"] On the off chance you can't find out what sex the other twin is/was, a blood test can be done to determine if you heifer twin is or is not a free martin. You can test the heifer if her twin was a bull as sometimes (VERY rarely) the heifer is not a free Martin. But my thought would be you would be wasting your time and money testing, its that rare. [USER=13664]@A.J.[/USER] and [USER=40587]@Warren Allison[/USER] make points that are well worth heeding. [/QUOTE]
