[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 726743, member: 2308"] As far as twins go, more often than not the cows have them by themselves. We had 3 sets last year, 2 live and one dead (for unknown reasons) and they were all born outside on the bedding pack. Just went out there to check and there they were. Mamas were quite willing to take them. Actually, as far as I can remember, we've never had a cow that rejected one of them. Rarely leave both of them on the cow though, usually we end up needing a xtra calf for some cow that lost her baby. But, I really hate it when heifers have twins. They just have too much going on as it is to have to support 2 calves for any amount of time. [/QUOTE]
