[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 639229, member: 4353"] The problem being that unless the calves are on a creep feeder from a very young age the cow don't raise 2 400lb calves. One is likely to be 500lbs and the other closer to 300lbs. For my market selling specific weight calves directly to a feedlot and getting a premium beacuse of that I usually end up with a few twin calves too light to make the required weight and the time of year when I wean the market for those lightweights is three hours drive away. Usually more hassle than its really worth. [/QUOTE]
