[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1636855, member: 1715"] Congrats. We have poor success with mothering up twins on pasture. Folks who like to calve on pasture do not usually talk about this. The strong survive... We have learned to snag one of the twins before it disappears. The interesting thing is good "mothering" seems to hurt twin survival. "Easy" cows stand around till someone shows up to suck, rather than taking off and hiding a calf in a remote area. The neighbor has a high input corral calving system. They pen the trio up tight and have very good success raising twins. [/QUOTE]
