[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 727110, member: 2308"] Yes, because twins are notorious for coming early. I think they average a week earlier than single calves. And in a small animal such as a heifer, there is even less room, so they might come even earlier than that. But just because an animal starts to show earlier than you expect she should doesn't mean that she will calve earlier either. Have seen lots that show lots, and you expect them to drop at any moment, meanwhile, any number of the other ones that don't look half as close drop their calves, and 2 weeks later the 'early' one finally calves.
