[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1613187, member: 25884"] I had a "beef" heifer, 1/2 angus x holstein x jersey, that had a set of twins 3 days apart. Identical down to the same 10 white hairs on the forehead. The first was born dead, she passed placenta and I took it and used it to smear all over a calf to graft on her. She was penned separate and I got the calf grafted on her. This was on a Friday. Then on Sunday night she went to kicking the calf and I had to take it out of the pen that night. On monday morning she was acting funny, then I saw her lay down and start to push, and she had another heifer about a half hour later. Live and fine, cleaned from that one. She also allowed the other calf back on her, and I wound up putting a 3rd calf on her since she had so much milk. I named her Lucky, because she sure was. Still have her. Vet said he had seen a few over the years. [/QUOTE]
